Covering Lurgan and nearby
Coverage for touch-free and push-button activation runs across the BT66 postcode district and out into the surrounding parts of County Armagh. Wherever the building is, the arrangements stay the same: one contracting party, a written price before work, and a specialist engineer working under our management on site.
Small offices, community centres and village halls around Lurgan tend to have one main entrance, often used by visitors who need level access without steps. Automating the existing door, rather than replacing it, is frequently the most practical and affordable route.
Nearby towns we also list for touch-free and push-button activation (straight-line distance): Craigavon (2.5 miles), Portadown (5.4 miles), Banbridge (8.3 miles), Lisburn (12.6 miles), Armagh (15.6 miles), Dungannon (17.6 miles).
What to think about for touch-free and push-button activation in Lurgan
- Look at where people approach the door from. A switch that can only be reached once someone is already at the door, or in the leaf's path, is in the wrong place.
- Washrooms and accessible toilets in Lurgan need the inside switch paired with a lock button and an emergency release, so the room can be used privately and safely.
- Keep switch heights and symbols consistent across a site. People with sight loss or memory problems find doors easier when every switch is in the same place.
- Doors next to busy walkways can open for every passer-by on a motion sensor. A wave switch or push pad on that side may cut false openings and heat loss.
- Homes in Lurgan often need controls for more than one person. Carers, family and the person using the door may each need their own fob or button.

Standards and rules in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, disability access duties come from the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, because the Equality Act 2010 does not apply there. Service providers and employers are expected to make reasonable adjustments, and an automatic door is a common one at entrances. Fitting an automatic door helps, but does not on its own guarantee those duties are met.
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.
How it works
- Get in touch. Call, email or use the form with the address and what you have in mind. If you are not sure which type of door suits, describe the entrance and we will suggest the options worth considering.
- Survey and advice. The survey costs nothing and carries no obligation. The engineer checks the site and explains which options suit the entrance, the people using it and the budget, before anything is priced.
- Quote in writing. You receive a fixed, itemised quote for touch-free and push-button activation in Lurgan, covering equipment, installation, testing and handover, with the lead time and payment stages set out clearly.
- Install, test, explain. The engineer installs and commissions the door, tests the sensors, safety functions and emergency behaviour, and walks you through the controls. The handover pack records what was installed and tested.
Ask for a fixed price on touch-free switches, push pads or fobs in Lurgan. The survey is free and nothing is fitted until you accept the quote.
Touch-free and push-button activation in Lurgan: questions
Our door in Lurgan keeps opening for passers-by. Can you fix it?
Usually, by adjusting or narrowing the sensor field, or by changing to a switch on that side. If the sensor is old or faulty, it may need replacing. A visit to adjust or replace a sensor is priced in writing before anyone attends, as that is care work.
How are prices worked out for touch-free and push-button activation in Lurgan?
Our guide starts from £145 excluding VAT (per switch fitted), the same guide price we use across the UK. For homes that is from £174 including VAT. The free site survey in Lurgan confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
Can you move a push pad that is in the wrong place at our building in Lurgan?
Yes. Moving a pad to a side wall or a post, away from the swinging leaf, often makes a big difference for wheelchair users. We set the new position at survey, quote the work, and test the door with the pad in its new place before we leave.
How long does it take to fit activation devices in Lurgan?
Lead time is typically 1 to 3 weeks for the devices. On site, a single switch usually takes an hour or two, and a full set for several doors may take a day. We give the expected time on site with the quote.
What should I send before the survey in Lurgan?
A few photos of the door from inside and outside, rough measurements of the opening, the address and a note of how the entrance is used. If the door already has an operator, a photo of any label on it helps. With that, the engineer arrives prepared, the survey takes less of your time and we can put the quote for touch-free and push-button activation together more easily.
Is there a warranty on touch-free and push-button activation?
Yes. The warranty terms for the equipment and the installation are set out in your written quote, so you can see exactly what is covered before you accept. Keeping the door serviced at the recommended intervals helps keep it in good order, and the quote explains any conditions that apply to the warranty.
Which marking should a new automatic door in Lurgan 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.
