Options for industrial door replacement in Greenwich
- Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.
- Right door type. Replace with the same type or move to a door that suits your current needs.
- Free survey. Existing door, opening and space assessed free of charge.
- Ongoing servicing. New door added to a maintenance schedule from year one.
- Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
What this work can involve
- Stripping out a sectional door with broken springs and an obsolete motor, and fitting a new door with an inverter drive.
- Replacing a corroded single-skin roller shutter on a trade unit with an insulated roller door and electric operation.
- Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Powered door rules that apply in Greenwich
Greenwich is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Keeping your site running during the work
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Your questions about industrial door replacement
How long will our opening in Greenwich be out of use?
The new door is made to measure before the old one is removed, so a single door is usually stripped out and replaced in a day, with the opening secured again by the end of the visit.
Do you replace doors at multiple sites across Greater London?
Yes. We replace doors across Greater London, including planned programmes covering several sites or a whole run of units, phased so that each site keeps operating normally while its doors are being changed.
How much does industrial door replacement cost in Greenwich?
Strip-out and disposal has a guide price of £345 to £1,195 ex VAT per door, plus the new door, for example £2,395 to £5,495 for an electric single-skin roller shutter. We confirm the full fixed price in writing after a free survey in Greenwich.
