  • UNSAFE SYSTEM NOTICE:
    Requiring Improvement

    In accordance with the DHF Code of Practice, the above door is currently not safe for operation.
    Continued use of this system may result in damage to property or injury to users or members of the public generally.
    All faults or improvements we consider necessary to be rectified before the system can be regarded as safe in operation are listed on the page entitled ‘Fail’ within this service/maintenance record.

    You are reminded that, as the system manager, you have a legal duty of care to users and visitors to the premises (including trespassers). If the system is not maintained in safe condition, any party whose property is damaged, or who is injured by the door is likely to be able to sue for damages. If you have insurance covering such risks, your insurance contract is likely to oblige you to disclose material facts to your insurer such as, in this case, the fact that the door is not considered safe.

    Depending on location and use, there may well be responsibilities for the system manager under health and safety law. Failure to meet duties imposed by health and safety legislation could result in criminal proceedings.
    Due to our own responsibilities under criminal law as a system maintainer, we are unable to leave a system with “safety critical” defects in service.

    In this case we have rated as “requiring improvement”, we may leave the system in service at your discretion, this is on the basis that the asset most likely met the required safety standards at the time of install, however does not currently meet the required safety standards and therefore improvements should be budgeted for and a plan created to bring the asset up to current standards.

    Where a system with defects requiring improvement is left in service, there may well still be legal liabilities for the system manager in the event of an incident resulting in damage to property or injury. We strongly advise all safety related defects are resolved with immediate effect to protect the interests of both the system manager and users of the system.

  • The system has been left as found?

  • SURVEY REQUIRED: Please survey for the installation of a safety brake. Should there be no step off available for this on the existing roller shutter door, please survey for a replacement roller shutter door c/w safety brake.

  • SAFETY IMPROVEMENT REQUIRED: The shutter does not have the required safety brake and therefore this must be installed

  • Electrical - shocks/fire

  • Electrical isolation point in view of the door?

  • Can the isolation point be locked off?

  • SAFETY IMPROVEMENT REQUIRED: the isolation point for the door must be in view of the door or have the capability to be locked off. DSS suggest a switched fused illuminated spur within view of and 1 meter of the door be installed for safety during inspection and repair.

  • Control - faults in safety systems

  • Is the location for the activation control a fixed location?

  • Are the activation controls in view of the door?

  • The user MUST always be in view of the door when activating for H&S reasons.

  • Users are aware they must be within view of the door when operating the roller shutter door.

  • User are aware no persons may pass under the door whilst in operation

  • Manual Shutter (No Controls)

  • Crush - closing between ground and 2.5m

  • Operational Devices Installed

  • Accessible for inspection?

  • Condition

  • Comments

  • Checked and working?

  • Details for replacement

  • Hold to run checked and working

  • Cover plates in tact and no bare wires showing

  • Hold to run checked and working

  • Fob buttons can be covered to prevent accidental activation

  • All button cover plates are present and there are no bare wires

  • Emergency stop button tested and working

  • Image of button to be replaced

  • RECOMMENDATION: Safety device to be installed to the roller shutter door.

  • Draw-in - at the coil (roll) when coil is less than 2.5m high

  • To prevent drawing in at the shutter coil (roll) is concealed/protected by

  • SURVEY REQUIRED: Please survey for a shutter canopy or fascia.

  • SAFETY IMPROVEMENT REQUIREMENT: As the height of the shutter coil is less than 2.5 meters high and the coil is not concealed, a canopy or fascia should be installed to prevent the potential for drawing in.

  • Image of shutter coil

  • Lifting - people, when hand/foot holds exists

  • Does the shutter have a wicket gate installed

  • BS EN 12453-2017 states: If a pass door (wicket gate) is fitted in a power-operated door (shutter), movement of the power-operated door shall be prevented when: (A) the pass door is not in a safe position, or, (B) stop the door movement if the pass door is no longer in a safe position. The safe position is: fully open position when the wicket gate DOES NOT travel with the door.

  • The door has a safety device preventing the activation of the door when the wicket gate is not in a safe position

  • Comment

  • The door has a safety device which stops the movement of the door should the wicket gate cease to be in a safe position during the movement of the door

  • Comment

  • Are there any other object(s) attached/which protrude from the shutter which could cause a hazard should a person or object come into contact with these object(s) during activation? (example: hook)

  • Image of object

  • Can this object be removed without reducing the security of the door?

  • Image of door following removal of object

  • Please provide details on how hazard can be removed.

  • Imprisonment/Means of Escape

  • Is the door installed over an entrance or an exit of any type?

  • As the roller shutter door is located over an entrance/exit/goods in location, the roller shutter door should be fitted with means of access, securing or escape in the event of a motor/power failure.

  • Is the shutter installed internally externally to the building?

  • Does the shutter have a UPS/battery back up installed?

  • SAFETY & SECURITY RECOMMENDATION: The installation of a UPS is recommended to ensure the shutter can be secured or opened in the event of motor or power failure. A manual wind facility is not usually suitable for an internally installed shutter as the winding eyelet is not accessible externally and therefore access to the building may be prevented.

  • Does the shutter have a manual wind facility?

  • SAFETY & SECURITY RECOMMENDATION: The installation of a manual wind facility is recommended to ensure the shutter can be secured or opened in the event of motor or power failure.

  • The manual wind function has been tested and is working

  • Do the site have a winding handle?

  • SAFETY & SECURITY RECOMMENDATION: A winding handle should be issued to site

  • A winding handle has been issued to site during this visit
