In short
From a single wide plant-shed door to a full hangar frontage, we can design and fit large-span doors in Sevenoaks, coordinating floor rails, steelwork and controls so the whole opening works as one system.

What to specify
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
- Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Sevenoaks are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in Kent the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
