Options for hangar and large-span doors in South Yorkshire
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
- Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in South Yorkshire 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
Sites in and around South Yorkshire vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
