Options that matter on site
- Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
- Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
- Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
Jobs we can carry out
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
Powered door rules that apply in Gravesend
Gravesend 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Gravesend can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
