Options that matter on site
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Broadstairs?
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.
