What we fit in Scunthorpe
- Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
What this work can involve
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
Powered door rules that apply in Scunthorpe
Scunthorpe 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.
Planning the work around your site
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
