Manual Gate Preventative Maintenance Checklist
This template supports planned preventative maintenance and safety checks for manual gates. It guides engineers to capture site details, assess gate type and dimensions, inspect gate leaves, hinges, closers, and locks, verify alignment and operation of access controls, and lubricate components. Users can document defects, add photos, and record recommendations, install dates, and estimated equipment lifespan. The checklist reinforces compliance with PUWER and industry guidance from the HSE, GateSafe, and DHF, and includes engineer and client sign-off. It also highlights legal duty of care and workplace safety obligations.
