Options for industrial door replacement in Burnley
- Minimal downtime. The new door is ready before the old one comes out, keeping downtime short.

What this work can involve
- 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.
- 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 Burnley?
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
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Questions from businesses in Burnley
Can we change door type when replacing at our Burnley 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.
Should we repair or replace our door in Burnley?
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 Burnley 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.
