5.0. HEALTH AND SAFETY
Health and safety measures to follow during the installation, maintenance, and repair of manual or electrical shutter doors:
5.1. Proper Training: Ensure that all personnel involved in the installation, maintenance, and repair of shutter doors are adequately trained and competent to perform their tasks safely.
5.2. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Require the use of appropriate PPE such as safety goggles, gloves, and steel-toed boots to protect against potential hazards like falling objects or electrical shocks.
5.3. Risk Assessment: Conduct a thorough risk assessment before starting any work to identify potential hazards and implement appropriate control measures.
5.4. Safe Lifting: Use proper lifting techniques or mechanical aids (e.g., hoists, cranes) when handling heavy components to prevent strains or injuries.
5.5. Electrical Safety: When working with electrical shutter doors, ensure that power sources are switched off and properly isolated before performing any maintenance or repair tasks to prevent electrical shocks.
5.6. Lockout/Tagout Procedures: Implement lockout/tagout procedures to isolate energy sources and prevent accidental activation of the shutter door during maintenance or repair work.
5.7. Fall Protection: Use appropriate fall protection equipment such as safety harnesses and lanyards when working at heights to prevent falls from platforms or ladders.
5.8. Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in enclosed spaces to prevent the build-up of fumes or gases that could pose respiratory hazards to workers.
5.9. Fire Safety: Keep fire extinguishers readily available and ensure that workers are trained in fire safety procedures to respond effectively in case of a fire emergency.
5.10. Regular Inspections: Schedule regular inspections of shutter doors to identify any potential defects or wear and tear that could compromise their safety, and promptly address any issues found.
6.0. START OF WORKS
6.1. Engineers must report to the client/site office on arrival at the site.
6.2. Engineers must attend site induction if instructed to do so.
6.3. Engineers must wear the correct PPE required for the job and/or as instructed by the client/customer site.
6.4. Engineers must create an exclusion zone using hazard tape and cones before work starts.
6.5. Engineers are to use only the correct equipment for all access as dictated by the job and/or instructed by the client/customer.
6.6. Engineers are to inspect and assess the requirements of the task. If dismantling of the existing door is needed, follow step 2 first; if not required, follow step 3.
7.0. DISMANTLE PROCESS
7.1. Visually inspect the area and ensure the exclusion zone is in place
7.2. Bring in all required equipment and materials into the exclusion zone
7.3. Bring the shutter door down to ground level (Manually or use of power)
7.4. Disconnect and isolate electrical power supply
7.5. Position and secure ladders on either side of the shutter door (depending on the height and width of the door, a scaffold tower may be required central to the door)
7.6. Remove the front canopy and inspect fittings including top clips
7.7. Remove the guide rail on one side to gain access to the edge of the shutter door
7.8. Slats or Laths can now be removed in sections from the bottom up to the barrel
7.9. With the use of ladders, remove top clips from the barrel
7.10. Disconnect the barrel (and motor) from the flags taking the weight in the process and bring it to the floor
7.11. Remove guides unless they are going to be used for the installation of next-door
8.0. INSTALLATION PROCESS
8.1. Visually inspect the area and ensure the exclusion zone is in place
8.2. Bring in all required equipment and materials into the exclusion zone
8.3. Ensure power is disconnected and isolated
8.4. Position and secure ladders on either side of the shutter door (depending on the height and width of the door, a scaffold tower may be required central to the door)
8.6. With the use of ladders (and where applicable tower) lift the barrel (and motor if not outboard) into the correct position and secure it to flags. If manual winding mechanism, set pre-tension when installing the barrel.
