Options that matter on site

Commissioning. Safety devices tested, forces measured and instructions handed over.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing vehicle-damaged roller shutters on a block of small industrial units between tenancies.
Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Changing a manual sliding door for a new electric sectional door running on low-headroom tracks.

Powered door rules that apply in Stockport

Stockport 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.

Access, phasing and timing

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Questions from businesses in Stockport

Can we change door type when replacing at our Stockport 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.

Do you replace doors at multiple sites across Greater Manchester?

Yes. We replace doors across Greater Manchester, 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 long will our opening in Stockport 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.
