- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
- Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to freezers.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Barrow-in-Furness?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
