What we fit in Purley

Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.

Examples of work we can quote for

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Purley?

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.

Planning the work around your site

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
