What we fit in Crawley

Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.

Powered door rules that apply in Crawley

Crawley 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.

How the work is organised

Sites in and around Crawley 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.
