Large openings at sites in Horsham (RH12) need doors engineered for wind, weight and structure. We specify the running gear, drives and safety devices to suit, then install and commission the complete door.

What to specify
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Horsham 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
Most installations in Horsham 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.
