What we fit in Crewe
- Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
- Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
- 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.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
- 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 Crewe?
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
For busy sites in Cheshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Crewe?
Yes. We coordinate loads, fixings, floor rails and steelwork with your structural engineer and main contractor so the door and the building are designed together, and we agree a programme before manufacture.
Can you refurbish our existing hangar doors in Crewe?
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.
Can a large door at our Crewe 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.
