Industrial door installation in Eltham

In short

Industrial door installation for warehouses, factories, workshops and trade units in Eltham. We survey the opening, recommend the door and drive that suit how it is used, and fit, commission and hand it over with full paperwork.

Town: Eltham
Postcode district: SE9
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.
Loading equipment. Dock levellers, shelters, seals, bollards and guide protection fitted alongside the door.
Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
Free survey. Opening, headroom, obstructions, fixings and power all measured before we quote.
Aftercare. Once fitted, we can service the door on a schedule and repair it, along with doors from other installers.

Typical scopes of work

Phasing the replacement of several loading bay doors over consecutive weekends so goods-in stays open during the week.
Supplying a bottom-rolling sliding door for a wide opening where there is no headroom for a coiled or tracked door.
Fitting a freezer door with heated frame and inside release to a new cold room within a food production unit.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Eltham?

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

For busy sites in Greater London the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
