Hangar and large-span doors in Warrington

The short version

From a single wide plant-shed door to a full hangar frontage, we can design and fit large-span doors in Warrington, coordinating floor rails, steelwork and controls so the whole opening works as one system.

What we fit in Warrington

Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Warrington?

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.

How the work is organised

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Hangar and large-span doors in Warrington: your questions

Do you work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Warrington?

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.

Do you service large doors across Cheshire?

Yes. We service and repair hangar and large-span doors across Cheshire, including running gear, drives, controls and safety devices. Service and repair visits are chargeable and quoted before work starts.

Which hangar door type would suit our building in Warrington?

It depends on headroom, side space, structure and how often the door moves. Sliding doors need side space, vertical-lift fabric doors need headroom, and large sectional doors suit big but not extreme openings. We recommend after survey.
