Servicing and ongoing maintenance is key for keeping your system up and running, here at HMS with all of our new systems in 2024 come fitted as standard the CAME connect which allows us to monitor your system from our monitoring system in reception. This is ideal for a number of our customers who spend time away on business trips and also our customers who are on holiday we can continue to monitor the security of their premises.

 

 

If you're looking for a company to take on the servicing and maintenance of your existing system please call the office and speak to Amanda and she will arrange a site visit by one of our engineers to assess your systemand if necessary advise on repairs or the safety of your existing system.

 

The owner of the automated gate system is required to manage the safety and operation of their automated gates under the machinery directive 2008.this also applies to commercial premises, commercial premises defined, can be residential properties with one or more additional properties who have inter-actions with the gate.

 

Servicing for commercial premises i.e. the work place depending on usage will need a minimum of 2 visit per year. The first visit will be to service the gates, the second service which will also be checked in the first service is the safety aspect of the gate. It is important that if any gate or barrier should be driven into then we should be notified and carry out an immediate Risk Assessment however, small the collision may have been.

 

Domestic servicing as a rule is once a year, this will includea physical hands on servicing and carrying out a visual risk assessment.
