Town: Droylsden
Postcode district: M43
Area: Greater Manchester
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
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. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.

Examples of work we can quote for

Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.

Powered door rules that apply in Droylsden

Droylsden 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
