Options that matter on site
- Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
- Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Huyton?
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.
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.
