72 THE door industry journal spring 2020 Ellard are Leading the Way with Training Facilities Two months into the year and a lot of major changes have already happened at Ellard. One of these changes is the acquirement of a new cutting-edge training centre. These new facilities prove a huge advancement in the way Ellard can provide training due to an extensive range of working examples available on the upper floor and a classroom environment where technical information can be taught on the lower. Built by Ellard’s own Dave England, the training room’s working examples are accompanied with all accessories and safety add-ons that you may come across daily when working with industrial doors. Because of this, Ellard’s training sessions are a close simulation of real-life where tasks such as fault finding and force-testing can be carried out in a way that ensures a thorough learning experience. Ellard are expecting further developments in their training centre with Comunello supplying working gate automation examples, and Intratone supplying a stand of intercoms and access control. With these additions you can be sure that the training facilities will carry on developing and improving Ellard’s ability to give the best training experiences to all in the door and gate industry. www.ellard.co.uk
