What we fit in Witham
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
- Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
- Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
- Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
- Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Witham are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Witham can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
