PAT Testing
Do you charge for plug and fuse replacement?

No I don’t charge a fee to change a plug or fuse, just charge for the new plug or fuse.

When an item fails do you just cut off the plug?

No not at all, failed devices are clearly labelled and added to the failed device log sheet; this log sheet is then handed to the responsible person who will then make arrangements for repairs or replacement.

I am a private landlord with several properties within a few miles of each other, I am only responsible for 3 or 4 items per property, will I be charged the up to 10 items fixed fee?

In this instance I am happy to negotiate a fixed fee for landlord’s, contact me to discuss your needs.

Do you carry out microwave leakage tests?

Yes, I can carry out leakage tests in both commercial and private dwellings.

Door Finger Guards
Will you remove our old finger guards before replacing with new or will we need to get someone to do this first?

The removal of old finger guards is all part of the service.
However I cannot be held responsible for any damage e.g. flaking paint on doorframes as a result.

Why does the cost of finger guards vary so much?

As every product on the market it boils down to quality, functionality and warranty.

The products I recommend on the website are proven for quality, durability, warranty and ease of service. If you are unsure if you are getting a like for like service from other suppliers please feel free to contact me for a no obligation chat.

We are a small village hall who has been approached by a local school to provide a letting for an after school club, they have been to complete a risk assessment and notified us due to the lack of finger guards on ingress and egress routes we are not fit for purpose. What can we do to solve this issue?

I am happy to visit your establishment and perform a door risk assessment with no obligation, and advise as to the best solution to satisfy potential letting clients.

Are door finger guards universal?

Unfortunately not, there are many factors to consider when choosing the correct finger guard

  • Door manufacture material
  • Hinge type
  • Door opening angle
  • Door access usage
  • Door furniture fitted
  • Type of door frame

One size does not fit all here, if in doubt contact me for a no obligation chat.
