PRODUCTS LOADING BAYS & DOORS CHANGING PARTS IN TIME PREVENTS BREAKDOWNS


Easilift Loading Systems is reporting a 30% growth in its service business during the past 12 months – a success the company attributes to the developments it has made in its after-sales approach. This leading provider of loading


solutions is currently expanding further into the UK market by recruiting more service engineers and salespeople. Alongside this Easilift is promoting the benefits of preventative maintenance to their customers through an initiative of changing parts in time (or CPIT). According to Easilift, making simple, pre-emptive routine repairs can often prevent more widespread breakdowns, helping the customer to avoid expensive repair bills. “By adopting a proactive culture of


changing components that cost a few pounds it can help to avoid more expensive repairs that can run to hundreds if not thousands of pounds,” comments managing director Rob Fay. “The philosophy behind CPIT is to protect against this eventuality by routinely replacing often neglected components as part of an integrated programme of Planned Preventative Maintenance.” Items commonly checked within the


CPIT programme include door lifting cables, door rollers, hinges, locks and switches which are routinely replaced. “These vital components are a critical part of any loading bay product and


HIGH SECURITY SHUTTER


Hart Door Systems has launched a high security shutter which has been tested to LPS1175 SR4 issue 7 standards by the Loss Prevention Council Board, part of the British Research Establishment. “We have designed and


manufactured a system which can be up to 8 m high and 9 m wide and resist attack by tools from axes to powered cutters for 20 minutes without yielding,” says chairman Doug Hart. “To get to this level of accreditation


subjected to tens of thousands of operations per year to assist the smooth, safe and fast operation of docks, doors and other loading bay equipment,” explains Fay. “Loading bay products are often required to function in environments of extreme cold or extreme moisture and after several years of wear and tear the components inevitably wear out.” Knock-on effects of component failures


vary from the immediately dangerous to those which are commercially undesirable. A further consideration is the impact of downtime to customer operations while more lengthy repairs are being carried out; cost implications can be significant.

Making simple, pre-emptive routine repairs can often prevent more widespread breakdowns


at our first attempt speaks volumes for our design and engineering capability. We are only the second company to achieve this standard in the UK and have already sold our first door.” “The damage to the Terror Screen


during testing was staggering and yet it did not allow breakthrough. The purpose of the door is to make access impossible within a certain time which in combination with perimeter security and surveillance systems provides valuable protection for people and property. We have already had interest from the US and in the volatile world we live in we expect considerable interest in the British-made product.”
