Hangar and large-span doors in Eltham

Quick answer

Planning a new hangar or large shed near Eltham? We work with your structural engineer and contractor on multi-leaf sliding, vertical-lift fabric or large sectional doors designed around the building.

Town: Eltham
Postcode district: SE9
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

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.
Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.

Examples of work we can quote for

Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Eltham are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Access, phasing and timing

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
