What we fit in South Croydon

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.
Electric sliding. Motorised sliding doors with pull cords, radar or loops and safety edges.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.

Typical scopes of work

Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in South Croydon?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Most installations in South Croydon 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.
