The short version
Old springs, corroded guides and obsolete motors make some doors in Hackney hard to keep running. A planned replacement avoids the next breakdown and leaves you with a door that suits how you work now.

- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Ongoing servicing. We can service the new door from the start so its history begins on day one.
- 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.
- Minimal downtime. The new door is ready before the old one comes out, keeping downtime short.
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing vehicle-damaged roller shutters on a block of small industrial units between tenancies.
- 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 Hackney
Hackney 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.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Greater London 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.

Industrial door replacement in Hackney: your questions
Should we repair or replace our door in Hackney?
If the door has several faults, recurring problems or parts that are no longer made, replacement is often better value. We price repair and replacement side by side so you can decide on cost and remaining life.
Is the survey free for door replacement in Hackney?
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.
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.
