Options that matter on site

Minimal downtime. Made-to-measure door ordered first so the swap takes a day.
Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
Opening repairs. Damaged jambs and heads repaired or new framing fitted.
Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.

Jobs we can carry out

Swapping a standard shutter for a security-rated door installed exactly to the manufacturer's certified specification.
Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.
Changing a manual sliding door for a new electric sectional door running on low-headroom tracks.

Powered door rules that apply in Swansea

Swansea is in Wales, 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.

Industrial door replacement in Swansea: your questions

How long will our opening in Swansea 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 Swansea 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 West Glamorgan?

Yes. We replace doors across West Glamorgan, 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.
