Options for industrial door installation in Kent

Free survey. Opening, headroom, obstructions, fixings and power all measured before we quote.
Conformity paperwork. Handover includes the product and machinery conformity documents plus commissioning records.
Safety set-up. Powered doors fitted with safety edges or light curtains and force-tested to BS EN 12453.
Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
All door types. Roller shutters, insulated roller, sectional, high-speed, fire, sliding, hangar and cold store doors.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing corroded roller shutters on a vehicle workshop with insulated roller doors and new key-switch controls.
Installing a fire shutter in a compartment wall where a conveyor line passes between production and dispatch areas.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing shutter so the main door can stay open through the working day.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Kent are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Access, phasing and timing

For busy sites in the South East 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.

Is the survey free for sites in Kent?

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.
