What to specify

Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Drives and controls. Powered leaves with controls to suit the site, plus a way to move the door if power is lost.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.

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.
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 Pontefract?

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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
