Options that matter on site

Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
Free survey. We measure and inspect the opening first, so the price reflects your building rather than a guess.
All door types. One installer for every common industrial door, from simple shutters to fire-rated and high-speed doors.
Aftercare. Planned maintenance and repairs available for the doors we fit and most other makes.
Safety set-up. Powered doors fitted with safety edges or light curtains and force-tested to BS EN 12453.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing a fire shutter in a compartment wall where a conveyor line passes between production and dispatch areas.
Supplying a bottom-rolling sliding door for a wide opening where there is no headroom for a coiled or tracked door.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing shutter so the main door can stay open through the working day.

Powered door rules that apply in Reading

Reading 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.

How the work is organised

Sites in and around Reading 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.

Frequently asked questions

Is the survey free for sites in Reading?

Yes, for new installations and replacements. We measure the opening and the space around it, check fixings, power and obstructions, and talk through how the door is used before preparing a written quote. Repair and service visits are charged separately.

Can you replace an old door at our Reading unit and take the old one away?

Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old door is priced as a separate line, along with any new framing or making good the opening needs. We confirm these details at survey so nothing is left to agree on the day.

How soon could a new door be installed at our Reading premises?

It depends mainly on the manufacturer's lead time for a made-to-measure door, which we confirm in the quote. Installation is then booked around your operations, and most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day.
