Options that matter on site
- Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
- Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
- Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
What this work can involve
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.
- Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Kettering?
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.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
