The short version
Replacing a door at a unit in Peckham (SE15) is a chance to upgrade: insulated instead of single skin, electric instead of manual, or high-speed where the opening is busy.
- Town
- Peckham
- Postcode district
- SE15
- Area
- Greater London
- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
- Ongoing servicing. New door added to a maintenance schedule from year one.
- Safe strip-out. Tensioned springs and heavy parts are removed by trained engineers.
- Commissioning. Each new door is tested and handed over with the documents it needs.
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.
- Removing a rotted timber frame and fitting new steel jambs before installing a replacement roller shutter.
- Replacing vehicle-damaged roller shutters on a block of small industrial units between tenancies.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Peckham?
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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions
Should we repair or replace our door in Peckham?
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.
How long will our opening in Peckham 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.
Can we change door type when replacing at our Peckham 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.
