What is planned preventative maintenance?

Planned Preventative Maintenance or PPM is a proactive approach to maintenance management. PPM involves scheduling regular inspections, servicing, and repairs to ensure that equipment and installations are fully optimised and functioning. Here at MPS Doors, we offer planned preventative maintenance to ensure that your doors and access points are compliant with all regulations and are fully optimised. Reactive work is generally more time-consuming, urgent, and very expensive when compared to proactive, preventative work which ensures a stress-free business and a safe work environment. We have over 10 years of experience in the automatic door industry and specialise in the service, repair and installation of a wide range of pedestrian automatic and commercial doors.

Here at MPS Doors, we offer complete Planned Preventative Maintenance Packages to all our customers. We are highly experienced and can integrate planned preventative maintenance packages into your business or organisation model to ensure that you are compliant and safe. We provide planned preventative maintenance packages for:

• All brands and types of Automatic Doors.
• Manual and Exit Doors.
• Roller Shutters and Industrial Doors.
• Automatic Gates and Barriers.

What does planned preventative maintenance include?

At MPS Doors, we take planned preventative maintenance seriously to ensure the safety and optimisation of your doors and access points. The key components of planned preventative maintenance include:

• Scheduled Inspections

Our scheduled inspections are undertaken on your doors and access points to identify potential issues before they become major problems. These scheduled inspections are typically based on manufacturer recommendations, industry standards, or historical performance data. We recommend regular inspections to ensure compliance.

• Regular Servicing

We recommend regular servicing to ensure that your doors and access points are performing at optimum levels. Servicing tasks may include lubrication, calibration, cleaning, and adjustments and are performed to help reduce wear and tear, prevent installation failure, and maintain performance standards.

• Parts Replacement

Doors and access points aren’t immune to wear and tear or age, therefore we can provide parts replacement as necessary. With our keen eye and thorough inspections, we can identify problematic areas and provide a proactive approach to prevent unexpected damage and the need for urgent repairs.

• Documentation and Record-Keeping

We will keep detailed records of planned preventative maintenance, including inspections, repairs, and parts replacements, so we can track the maintenance history of doors and access points. This documentation is valuable for identifying trends, optimising maintenance schedules, and demonstrating compliance with regulatory requirements.

Our Planned Preventative Maintenance Packages provide clients with a proactive approach to maintaining their doors and access points, rather than focusing on reactive repairs. By identifying and addressing potential issues before they disrupt operations, our Planned Preventative Maintenance Packages help organisations minimise downtime, reduce maintenance costs, and maximise the reliability and lifespan of their installations. If you want to ensure the function and safety of your access points and doors, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us for more information about our planned preventative maintenance packages.

Maintenance intervals will be determined by our expert team who will consider your unique requirements. For more information about our Planned Preventative Maintenance Packages, don’t hesitate to contact us today. We’re confident that we’ll have a package that’s right for you.
