Industrial door replacement in Gillingham

In short

Each door replacement in Gillingham starts with a free survey and a written fixed price that lists the new door, strip-out, disposal and any opening repairs as separate lines.

Town: Gillingham
Postcode district: ME7
Area: Kent
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Safe strip-out. Tensioned springs and heavy parts are removed by trained engineers.
Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
Ongoing servicing. We can service the new door from the start so its history begins on day one.
Commissioning. Each new door is tested and handed over with the documents it needs.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.
Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Replacing a corroded single-skin roller shutter on a trade unit with an insulated roller door and electric operation.

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

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.
