What we fit in West Glamorgan
- Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- 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 Wales
Industrial doors in West Glamorgan 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Which hangar door type would suit our building in West Glamorgan?
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.
