What to specify
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
- 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.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
- Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Gosport?
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.
Planning the work around your site
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.
