Hangar and large-span doors in Milton Keynes

Quick answer

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

Town: Milton Keynes
Postcode district: MK9
Area: Buckinghamshire
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.
Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.

Typical scopes of work

Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
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 Milton Keynes 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.
