Options that matter on site
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
- Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
- Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Typical scopes of work
- Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Burnley?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.

Frequently asked questions
Can you refurbish our existing hangar doors in Burnley?
Often, yes. If the leaves are sound, we renew wheels, guides, drives, cladding and safety devices. Where distortion or corrosion is severe, we explain why replacement may be better value.
Which hangar door type would suit our building in Burnley?
It depends on headroom, side space, structure and how often the door moves. Sliding doors need side space, vertical-lift fabric doors need headroom, and large sectional doors suit big but not extreme openings. We recommend after survey.
How long would a large-span door installation take in Burnley?
After design and manufacture, installation typically takes from several days to a few weeks depending on the number of leaves and any structural work. The full programme is set out with the quote.
