- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Macclesfield?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
