Options that matter on site

Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.

What this work can involve

Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.

Powered door rules that apply in Letchworth Garden City

Letchworth Garden City 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.
