With winter fast approaching, whether it's mild and wet, cold and icy or possibly with sub zero temperatures and winds blowing snow drifts along the roads and lanes (I'm shivering already), it's essential that the industrial doors that give security, access and protection to your business premises are operating well. Without them you may have to shut down for short or even long periods whilst they are repaired.If your industrial doors (Roller Shutters, Sliding Folding Doors, Up and Over Doors etc) are in a poor state of repair before the winter sets in, things can potentially only get worse. Any breakdown can result in a negative impact on your business. Therefore, it's important to prioritise you Industrial Door Maintenance to protect your business operation.

Here are just some of the reasons that this maintenance work is essential:
Insulation and Environment Control
If your industrial doors are damaged in any way, either jammed open or not fully closing to create that insulating seal, it probably means that heat is escaping. This effectively means that you will be spending more money on energy to make up the short fall in order to keep your premises at an appropriate temperature. You may not be able to get the premises to a suitable temperature, making working conditions less than adequate for your staff members and the resulting loss of productivity that goes with it.
Building Security
Building Security is one of the key benefits of Industrial Doors. If your Industrial doors not fully functional then your premises are not going to be fully secure. This will expose your business to criminal access, threatening your goods, equipment, even your entire business.
Business Availability, Un-necessary Downtime and Customer Inconvenience
Poorly maintained Industrial Doors, can easily result in a situation where-by your entire business ceases to function. Doors jammed closed can result in the the inability to move stock, whilst doors jammed open threaten the security, environment and safety of the products and staff under your care. This could spell the end of many businesses if they are dependant on the high trade volumes at Christmas.
Protect Your Merchandise and Business Assets
If your industrial doors are damaged, it could mean that merchandise and other business assets on your property are not being protected from the weather; in addition to the cost involved in poorly insulated buildings, it could also put any temperature-sensitive stock (such as food or industrial manufactured products) at risk.
Keep Your Staff Busy and Happy
If the doors to your business unit or warehouse a jammed open and it's windy and snowing outside, you can guarantee that you will have a disgruntled workforce who are constantly complaining that "if only the boss had listened to advice and got the doors, that jammed twice in the last month, maintained, we wouldn't be freezing cold....".
Prevention is Better Than Cure
It is easier to conduct regular, planned maintenance of your Industrial Doors than to fix them when they break. It will almost certainly be cheaper and less inconvenient for you and your customers too.
