What to specify
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.
- Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
Powered door rules that apply in Twickenham
Twickenham 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.
Planning the work around your site
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.

How long would a large-span door installation take in Twickenham?
After design and manufacture, installation typically takes from several days to a few weeks depending on the number of leaves and any structural work. The full programme is set out with the quote.
Which hangar door type would suit our building in Twickenham?
