  • Health and Safety considerations when working on auto door systems


    Before starting works at any door set note the following:



    • Is it safe and appropriate to work at the door set – have permissions been granted by the client


    • Will access through the door/s need to be isolated during the safety inspection – i.e. safety barriers etc


    • Is the electrical isolation point known and accessible for the door/s


    • Consider your PPE, make sure it's suited for both the task in-hand and the environment you are working in


    • Be especially careful when working on ‘live’ systems as minimal protection exists within the canopy area


    • Check isolations and ensure power is off (including batteries) to the door/s when cleaning tracks inspecting carriages etc


    • Use appropriate access equipment to complete the task in-hand


    • Note any other site specific requirements before commencing works


  • Notes

  • I have read and understood the above statement, and agree to comply and/or put in place appropriate controls. Initials & signature
