What we fit in Faversham

Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.

What this work can involve

Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.
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 Faversham?

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

Sites in and around Faversham vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Yes. We coordinate loads, fixings, floor rails and steelwork with your structural engineer and main contractor so the door and the building are designed together, and we agree a programme before manufacture.
