What to specify
- Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing an insulated spiral door as the main external opening on a temperature-controlled distribution unit.
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bury St Edmunds?
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
Sites in and around Bury St Edmunds vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
