Industrial door installation in Romford

The short version

Industrial door installation for warehouses, factories, workshops and trade units in Romford. 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: Romford
Postcode district: RM1
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
Conformity paperwork. Declaration of Performance, Declaration of Conformity and user instructions on handover.
Free survey. We measure and inspect the opening first, so the price reflects your building rather than a guess.
Safety set-up. Powered doors fitted with safety edges or light curtains and force-tested to BS EN 12453.
Fixed price. A written fixed price confirmed after the survey, before any work begins.

What this work can involve

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 Romford?

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.

Questions from businesses in Romford

Is the survey free for sites in Romford?

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.

Who signs off a new powered door at our Romford site?

When we assemble or motorise a door, we take on the manufacturer's role under machinery law: risk assessment, testing, conformity marking and the Declaration of Conformity. You then keep the door maintained as the employer or occupier.

Roller shutters, insulated roller doors, sectional overhead doors, high-speed doors, fire shutters, sliding and folding doors, hangar doors, cold store doors, steel personnel doors, traffic doors and strip curtains, plus loading bay equipment such as levellers and shelters.
