Options that matter on site
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- 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.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
- Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
Jobs we can carry out
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
- Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Halifax?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
How the work is organised
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Questions from businesses in Halifax
Do you work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Halifax?
Yes. We coordinate loads, fixings, floor rails and steelwork with your structural engineer and main contractor so the door and the building are designed together, and we agree a programme before manufacture.
Which hangar door type would suit our building in Halifax?
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 West Yorkshire?
Yes. We service and repair hangar and large-span doors across West Yorkshire, including running gear, drives, controls and safety devices. Service and repair visits are chargeable and quoted before work starts.
