Town: Merthyr Tydfil
Postcode district: CF47
Area: Mid Glamorgan
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.

Powered door rules that apply in Merthyr Tydfil

Merthyr Tydfil is in Wales, 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.
