Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Southport are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Keeping your site running during the work

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Industrial door replacement in Southport: your questions

How long will our opening in Southport 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.

Do you take the old door away from our Southport site?

Yes. Strip-out includes removing the old door, springs, guides and drive from site for recycling or disposal. It is priced as a separate line in the quote so you can see exactly what removal costs.

Do you replace doors at multiple sites across Merseyside?

Yes. We replace doors across Merseyside, 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.
