Overhead Door Installer Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) Worksheet

Garage doors/overhead doors are a pivotal component in many homes and businesses, and having an overhead garage door makes egress and ingress into a garage or work area easier than having to park outside, or move tools and equipment outside to do work. Overhead door installers and those engaged in door repair are exposed to certain risks and hazards during a garage door installation or garage door service call.

This app helps workers to document all steps and job tasks associated with the work that is done, notes any potential hazards, and allows risk mitigation strategies to be implemented. One particular area of concern for a garage door installer or overhead door service technician is the garage door spring - this tightly coiled spring holds a tremendous amount of potential energy and if released or broken, is capable of causing incredible bodily injury or dismemberment. Using this app can help mitigate that risk and other risks as a part of a comprehensive garage door safety plan for installers at a garage door company.

Use this app to best prevent exposure to potential injury, in order to promote job safety. It’s a helpful analysis tool to use at the worksite to uphold occupational safety procedures and requirements. Build a stronger safety and health program using this risk assessment tool to perform job safety analysis.
