Options for industrial door replacement in Maldon

Minimal downtime. Made-to-measure door ordered first so the swap takes a day.
Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
Opening repairs. Damaged jambs and heads repaired or new framing fitted.
Disposal. Old doors taken away for recycling or disposal.
Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.

Typical scopes of work

Swapping a standard shutter for a security-rated door installed exactly to the manufacturer's certified specification.
Stripping out a sectional door with broken springs and an obsolete motor, and fitting a new door with an inverter drive.
Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.

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

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

For busy sites in Essex the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions

Do you take the old door away from our Maldon site?

Yes. Strip-out includes removing the old door, springs, guides and drive from site for recycling or disposal. It is priced as a separate line in the quote so you can see exactly what removal costs.

Is the survey free for door replacement in Maldon?

Yes. Surveys for replacements are free. We assess the old door and opening, measure for the new door, and quote a fixed price that lists the door, strip-out, disposal and any opening works separately.

Can we change door type when replacing at our Maldon unit?

Usually, yes, subject to headroom, side room and back room. Common upgrades are single-skin to insulated, manual to electric and conventional to high-speed. We check the space and the structure on survey before recommending a door type.
