Stanair – helping you and your business to thrive…
Posted on 17th September 2024 at 16:37
With 92% of UK businesses reporting that they had faced difficulties as a result of the pandemic and 46% actively reducing services and activity, the nationwide lockdown in 2020, really affected the UK economy.
Now, four years later, the market has strengthened, grown and expanded and many organisations are looking to expand – however, with the cost-of-living crisis, rising inflation and rising costs putting the squeeze on budgets, it can be tempting to put that service, force test or safety brake test on the back burner. However, this approach can really be a false economy.
In this blog, Stanair help you to understand how investing in regular servicing, safety checks and maintenance can help you to ensure that your organisation remains fully compliant whilst saving time, money and resources.
1. Save on unexpected costs
The cost of neglecting your essential infrastructure can be very high. Afterall, you would not skip your car’s servicing for a few years and then be surprised when it starts to experience problems. Sadly, these issues can include a hefty repair bill at best and complete failure of key systems at worst.
Like all complex machinery, a door is only as good as the sum of its parts and these parts are liable to fail or become damaged. This is why a regular servicing schedule is essential. Not only does a comprehensive check by our expert engineers provide you with peace of mind that your door or product is working at its peak efficiency, but you can also be sure that you will be alerted to any potential non-conformities – before they even become an issue.
Our highly trained engineers can detect any issues with your door or equipment and will provide you with a detailed report which includes their recommendations for next steps. This allows you to budget and allocate resources to repairs and replacements rather than being unexpectedly hit with the costs of an emergency repair as well as the related costs of stopped production, possible part replacement and permanent damage to your equipment.
Not even a product which has been left inactive is immune. A door, roller or end lock can become mis-aligned, rusty or damaged over time – in fact Stanair has seen a recent increase in emergency call-outs to sites where the issues identified in the door failure have been entirely avoidable had the door been subject to a regular inspection schedule.
2. Ensure that all your products are compliant
Whether through failing brake systems, faulty sensors or by inadequate force testing, the machinery within your organisation can not only damage your finances but also your equipment and, in worse cases, people themselves.
There are many ways in which you can help protect your site, equipment and staff, however regular servicing and checks can provide you with the complete peace of mind that comes from knowing that you and your organisation have taken all reasonable steps to avoid incident and injury.
Depending on your equipment type, Stanair’s engineers can ensure that your products are fully compliant with UK laws as well as best practices within the industry – whilst ensuring that you are fully informed of any future repairs, actions or upgrades which may be necessary to provide you with full protection.
