Options for hangar and large-span doors in Prestwich

Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Prestwich?

In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Access, phasing and timing

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
