What we fit in Uppingham
- Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- 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.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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.
- Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Uppingham 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.
Planning the work around your site
Most installations in Uppingham can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
