Barrier Preventative Maintenance Visits

This barrier preventative maintenance checklist supports planned service visits for powered barriers and automatic gates. It guides engineers through safety and compliance checks, including numbers and locations of barriers, IR beams, warning lights, safety edges, signage, and operating equipment such as battery backup, fire drop units, and access controls. General inspection steps cover debris removal, lubrication, mechanical clearances, limit switches, cable routing, CE plates, emergency releases, and stop devices. Rising arm barrier checks verify mounting hardware, slowdown efficiency, manual release, lighting, and limit actuators. Electrical checks capture supply details and connection integrity. The template reinforces PUWER and Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC compliance and includes sections for hazards, defects, recommendations, photos, and sign-off.
