Options that matter on site
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
- Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
- Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Chorley 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
