What we fit in Sittingbourne

Drives and controls. Direct, centre or chain drive motors with buttons, remotes, loops, radar or interlocks.
All door types. One installer for every common industrial door, from simple shutters to fire-rated and high-speed doors.
Aftercare. Planned maintenance and repairs available for the doors we fit and most other makes.
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.

Examples of work we can quote for

Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing shutter so the main door can stay open through the working day.
Fitting sectional doors, a high-speed internal door and steel personnel doors to a new-build warehouse as one coordinated package.
Installing a fire shutter in a compartment wall where a conveyor line passes between production and dispatch areas.

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

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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Kent 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.

Your questions about industrial door installation

Who signs off a new powered door at our Sittingbourne 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.

Which door types do you install in Sittingbourne?

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.

Can you replace an old door at our Sittingbourne unit and take the old one away?

Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old door is priced as a separate line, along with any new framing or making good the opening needs. We confirm these details at survey so nothing is left to agree on the day.
