Options that matter on site
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
- Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
- 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.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Typical scopes of work
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Powered door rules that apply in Shipley
Shipley 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.
Planning the work around your site
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.
