Options for hangar and large-span doors in Huntingdon
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Jobs we can carry out
- Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
- Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.
- Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Huntingdon?
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.
Planning the work around your site
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.

Frequently asked questions
Can a large door at our Huntingdon site be operated without power?
Most powered large doors include a manual or emergency means of operation for power failures. How it works depends on the door type and size, and we explain it at handover and in the user instructions.
How long would a large-span door installation take in Huntingdon?
After design and manufacture, installation typically takes from several days to a few weeks depending on the number of leaves and any structural work. The full programme is set out with the quote.
Can you refurbish our existing hangar doors in Huntingdon?
Often, yes. If the leaves are sound, we renew wheels, guides, drives, cladding and safety devices. Where distortion or corrosion is severe, we explain why replacement may be better value.
