This CSCS card provision is for those who work with industrial doors, loading bay equipment, domestic garage doors, automated gates & traffic barriers and metal or timber fire doors in the UK.
CSCS cards (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) are UK-specific, primarily used in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. They are not officially applicable or recognised in the Republic of Ireland.
This scheme is run in partnership with ADSA (Automatic Door Suppliers Association), so if you require a CSCS card for working with powered pedestrian doors, either solely or including the products listed above, and you wish to have just one card, then please visit the ADSA website to apply for your CSCS card.
For clarity with all cards requiring additional evidence, for instance a dhf valid certificate, you will need the relevant certificate for whichever product area you work within. So, if you work on both gates and industrial doors you will need to show that you have passed two courses, one for industrial & garage doors and one for automated gates & traffic barriers.
As part of this scheme some cards require you to have attended and passed a dhf approved training course. The approved training courses are listed below. Should you need to attend a course please visit the training pages of this site to find a relevant course for Automated Gates and/or Industrial & Garage doors and Loading Bay Equipment, or visit the BRE Academy to book on to the relevant fire door course. If your certificate or diploma is about to expire then please click here and log in to take your refresher course.
