Hangar and large-span doors in Leominster

The short version

Hangar and large-span doors for aviation, rail, marine and heavy plant buildings in Leominster. We survey the opening and the structure, then design a door for its size and wind exposure before giving a fixed price.

Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
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.
Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.

Examples of work we can quote for

Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.
Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.

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

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

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
