- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Loading equipment. Dock levellers, shelters, seals, bollards and guide protection fitted alongside the door.
- Fixed price. You receive the price in writing once the survey is done, and it is agreed before anyone starts work.
- Drives and controls. Direct, centre or chain drive motors with buttons, remotes, loops, radar or interlocks.
- Aftercare. Once fitted, we can service the door on a schedule and repair it, along with doors from other installers.
- All door types. One installer for every common industrial door, from simple shutters to fire-rated and high-speed doors.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Phasing the replacement of several loading bay doors over consecutive weekends so goods-in stays open during the week.
- Specifying and fitting a complete goods-in bay with sectional door, hydraulic dock leveller, retractable shelter and bollards.
- Fitting sectional doors, a high-speed internal door and steel personnel doors to a new-build warehouse as one coordinated package.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bristol?
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.

Industrial door installation in Bristol: your questions
Is the survey free for sites in Bristol?
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.
Do you service and repair industrial doors across the South West?
Yes. We repair and maintain the doors we install and most other makes across the South West. Repair and service visits are chargeable, and a planned maintenance schedule can be set up once the new door is in.
How soon could a new door be installed at our Bristol 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.
