Industry Challenges

The challenges automatic door and industrial door businesses face every day

Automatic door maintenance businesses must balance reactive callouts, planned maintenance, compliance requirements, engineer availability and customer expectations.

Emergency callouts disrupting planned work

Breakdowns and faults arrive without warning, forcing urgent dispatch and disrupting planned maintenance schedules.

Tracking maintenance across multiple sites

Managing service schedules across large door portfolios becomes unreliable without a central system.

Compliance documentation overhead

Manual risk assessments and service records increase admin time and create compliance risk.

Engineers without key job information

Without asset history on site, engineers waste time and may require repeat visits.

Parts and inventory tracking

Motors, sensors and control components are difficult to manage across multiple engineers and vans.

Slow invoicing and cash flow delays

Delays between job completion and invoicing impact cash flow and financial control

Scaling contract management

As portfolios grow, manual tracking of renewals and service intervals becomes increasingly unreliable.

See how Klipboard helps automatic door maintenance businesses manage planned maintenance, reactive repairs, engineer schedules and customer service from one connected platform.

Our Solutions

Klipboard products built for automatic door and industrial door businesses

Klipboard connects every part of your automatic door installation and maintenance operation in one platform, from the first customer enquiry through to annual service contracts, emergency callout response and ongoing maintenance programmes.

Job management

Manage every installation, service and emergency callout from one central system. Log reactive breakdown jobs instantly, schedule planned maintenance visits and track every job from assignment through to completion.

Field service scheduling and dispatch

Assign jobs to your engineers using a drag and drop scheduler. See availability, skill sets and location at a glance, dispatch the nearest engineer to emergencies and plan maintenance visits weeks in advance.

Asset management

Register every door asset across all your client sites. Track door type, installation date, motor specifications, service history, warranty information and compliance records against each individual asset.

Planned preventative maintenance (PPM)

Automate your maintenance contracts. Klipboard generates recurring service jobs based on your contract terms, sends automated reminders and ensures no planned visit is ever missed.

Compliance and safety form builder

Build and deploy digital compliance forms for safety checks, risk assessments, BS EN 16005 inspections, force testing records and service certificates. Engineers complete everything on site via the mobile app with photo capture and customer sign-off.

Mobile engineer app

Give your engineers full job details, door asset records, previous service history and compliance forms on their mobile device. The app works offline, essential for engineers in basement loading bays and industrial facilities with poor connectivity.

Parts and inventory management

Track motors, control panels, safety edges and specialist door components across your business. Engineers log parts used on each job, keeping inventory accurate and job costs tracked throughout.

Quoting and invoicing

Generate quotes on site, get customer approval and turn completed jobs into invoices in minutes. Connect with Xero or QuickBooks to keep your accounts current without manual data entry.
