Hangar and large-span doors in Camden Town

In short

Hangar and large-span doors for aviation, rail, marine and heavy plant buildings in Camden Town. We survey the opening and the structure, then design a door for its size and wind exposure before giving a fixed price.

Town: Camden Town
Postcode district: NW1
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.

Jobs we can carry out

Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
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.

Powered door rules that apply in Camden Town

Camden Town 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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Greater London 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.
