Basildon was laid out as a new town after the Second World War, so its commercial buildings came in planned blocks: a pedestrianised town centre, a shopping parade for each neighbourhood, and large industrial and business estates on the edge of town. Plenty of those buildings now have an automatic door at the main entrance, often added during a refurbishment rather than when the building went up.
We’re about ten miles away in Chafford Hundred, which makes Basildon one of our nearest towns for door work. We cover the town centre, Laindon, Pitsea, Vange and Langdon Hills, along with the business parks around Cranes Farm Road and Burnt Mills.
A shop or surgery entrance in the town centre can open and close many times an hour from opening until closing. Constant use wears the drive belt, carriage wheels and floor guide, and a sensor knocked out of line by a trolley or delivery cage may stop seeing someone standing in the threshold. That is exactly the sort of fault a service is there to catch.
On the industrial estates the risk is often the reverse: a reception door that barely gets maintained because nobody thinks about it. Dust from warehouse floors and draughts from nearby loading bays both affect how a sliding door runs, so we look at the door in the context of the whole building.
Town centre, neighbourhood and business-park entrances across the borough.
Sliding entrances on shops, banks and cafés in and around the town centre, tested without closing your whole frontage for the day.
Swing and sliding doors on health centres in Laindon, Pitsea and the neighbourhood parades, checked for wheelchair and pushchair use.
Reception doors on Cranes Farm Road, Burnt Mills and the other estates, including doors linked to access control.
Entrances used by residents, pupils and visitors, with the escape and power-failure functions tested on every visit.
We test the safety sensors, measure closing force with force-testing equipment, check finger and crush points, and run the escape and power-failure functions. You get a written record for your maintenance log, with urgent work listed separately from recommendations. The full checklist is on our automatic doors page.
If a part has failed we can repair it, and where a door or frame has reached the end of its life we can fit a replacement. We work on GEZE, FAAC and Record doors, plus many other makes.
Questions we get from shops, schools, surgeries and building managers in Basildon.
Yes. Our Basildon door work covers the town centre, Laindon, Pitsea, Vange and Langdon Hills, and the business estates around Cranes Farm Road and Burnt Mills.
It depends on your lease. Some leases make the tenant responsible for the shopfront and its door, others leave it with the landlord or managing agent. HSE says the duty to visitors and the public applies to landlords and managing agents too, so check who has it in writing. We can work for either party.
