Industrial door installation in Westhoughton

At a glance

Facilities and site managers in Westhoughton can use one contractor to specify, install and commission industrial doors and the loading equipment around them, so one team is responsible for the whole opening.

Town: Westhoughton
Postcode district: BL5
Area: Greater Manchester
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Free survey. We measure and inspect the opening first, so the price reflects your building rather than a guess.
Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.
Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
Conformity paperwork. Handover includes the product and machinery conformity documents plus commissioning records.

Examples of work we can quote for

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.
Supplying a bottom-rolling sliding door for a wide opening where there is no headroom for a coiled or tracked door.

Powered door rules that apply in Westhoughton

Westhoughton 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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
