Hangar and large-span doors in Leighton Buzzard

The short version

Planning a new hangar or large shed near Leighton Buzzard? We work with your structural engineer and contractor on multi-leaf sliding, vertical-lift fabric or large sectional doors designed around the building.

Town: Leighton Buzzard
Postcode district: LU7
Area: Bedfordshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.

Examples of work we can quote for

Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Leighton Buzzard 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.

How the work is organised

Sites in and around Leighton Buzzard vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
