Covering Lisburn and nearby
Addresses anywhere in the BT27 and BT28 postcode districts can book automatic door refurbishment through us. The engineer who attends works under our management and travels to the site. There is no branch in Lisburn, so the price, the booking and the paperwork all come from one place.

What to think about for automatic door refurbishment in Lisburn
- High street doors in Lisburn often have scratched or etched glass from years of cleaning and graffiti. Replacing leaves with new safety glass restores a clean look.
- Glass and made-to-measure leaves are typically 2 to 4 weeks from order. Plan the work around that lead time, especially if a damaged leaf is temporarily boarded.
- Older shopfronts with discontinued door systems may need equivalent parts rather than exact matches. The survey identifies what is still available before anything is ordered.
- Frames near the coast or busy roads can corrode faster. The survey checks fixings and the bottom of the frame, where water and grit tend to collect.
- Office blocks and business parks in Lisburn with several matching doors can refurbish them together for a consistent finish and a lower cost per door.

Standards and rules in Northern Ireland
Whoever motorises a manual door, or builds an automatic door from separate parts, may take on the manufacturer’s legal duties for the finished door: a risk assessment, a technical file kept available for the authorities, a Declaration of Conformity, the conformity marking and instructions. You receive the Declaration of Conformity and the instructions at handover. In Northern Ireland machinery, including a new or converted powered door, carries the CE marking (with UKNI added where a UK body carried out the conformity assessment), and the EU Machinery Regulation applies there from 20 January 2027.
Standards are not retrospective, so an older door does not become unlawful when a standard is updated; a site-specific risk assessment shows whether any upgrades are sensible. BS EN 16005 is the current standard for the safety in use of powered pedestrian doors, and BS 7036-0:2014 is the British code of practice for risk assessment and risk reduction used alongside it. Standards are not law in themselves, but they are the recognised benchmark for showing an automatic door is safe to use, and we set up, test and document doors with reference to them.
How it works
- Tell us about the entrance. Send the address, a few photos and a rough size of the opening, and say how the door is used. That is enough for us to suggest options for automatic door refurbishment and book a survey in Lisburn.
- Free site survey. A specialist engineer working under our management measures the opening, checks the frame, floor, head height and power, and talks through how people use the entrance. There is no charge and no obligation.
- Fixed written quote. You receive a fixed, itemised written quote with the specification, lead time, payment stages and warranty terms. The price does not change unless the scope does, and any change is agreed in writing first.
- Installation and handover. The door is fitted on the agreed dates, then set up, tested and documented with reference to BS EN 16005. You are shown the controls and the simple checks to make, and receive the handover paperwork.

Automatic door refurbishment in Lisburn: questions
Can you refinish the frame of our door in Lisburn?
Yes. Aluminium frames can be cleaned, repaired and recoated on site to refresh their colour. Badly damaged sections may need replacing rather than refinishing. Refinishing is listed separately in the quote, so you can decide whether to include it now or leave it for a later phase.
What will automatic door refurbishment in Lisburn cost?
Our guide starts from £395 excluding VAT (per door), the same guide price we use across the UK. The free site survey in Lisburn confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
Can you refurbish a door in Lisburn that another company installed?
Yes. We refurbish doors whoever fitted them. The survey identifies the door system, and matching or equivalent rollers, guides, seals and glass are then sourced for it. If a part is no longer made, the quote explains the alternative.
Do you set up the door again after refurbishing it in Lisburn?
Yes. New running parts change how the leaves move, so speeds, sensor zones and obstacle detection are checked and reset before handover. You receive a record of the parts fitted and the test results to keep with the door's service history.
What happens once the installation in Lisburn is finished?
The engineer tests every function, including the safety sensors and the behaviour on power loss, and sets the door up with reference to BS EN 16005. You are shown how to use the controls and which simple checks to make, and you receive the handover documents, including the test record and any conformity paperwork that applies to the work.
What power supply is needed for automatic door refurbishment in Lisburn?
Most powered doors need a fused spur close to the operator, and some activation and access control devices also need a low-voltage link. The survey checks what is already there. If a new supply is required, the quote says whether we arrange it or your own electrician does, so nothing is left unclear on the day.
Which marking should a new automatic door in Lisburn carry?
In Northern Ireland machinery carries the CE marking, with UKNI added where a UK body carried out the conformity assessment. The EU Machinery Regulation applies in Northern Ireland from 20 January 2027.
