Hangar and large-span doors in Sunbury-on-Thames

Options for hangar and large-span doors in Sunbury-on-Thames

Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.

Typical scopes of work

Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
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.

Powered door rules that apply in Sunbury-on-Thames

Sunbury-on-Thames 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

For busy sites in Surrey the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Questions from businesses in Sunbury-on-Thames

Which hangar door type would suit our building in Sunbury-on-Thames?

It depends on headroom, side space, structure and how often the door moves. Sliding doors need side space, vertical-lift fabric doors need headroom, and large sectional doors suit big but not extreme openings. We recommend after survey.

Do you service large doors across Surrey?

Yes. We service and repair hangar and large-span doors across Surrey, including running gear, drives, controls and safety devices. Service and repair visits are chargeable and quoted before work starts.

Can you refurbish our existing hangar doors in Sunbury-on-Thames?

Often, yes. If the leaves are sound, we renew wheels, guides, drives, cladding and safety devices. Where distortion or corrosion is severe, we explain why replacement may be better value.
