What to specify
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
- Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
What this work can involve
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
- 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.
Powered door rules that apply in Exmouth
Exmouth is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
