Options for industrial door installation in Birkenhead
- Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
- Safety set-up. Powered doors fitted with safety edges or light curtains and force-tested to BS EN 12453.
- All door types. One installer for every common industrial door, from simple shutters to fire-rated and high-speed doors.
- Fixed price. You receive the price in writing once the survey is done, and it is agreed before anyone starts work.
- Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
What this work can involve
- Fitting sectional doors, a high-speed internal door and steel personnel doors to a new-build warehouse as one coordinated package.
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing shutter so the main door can stay open through the working day.
- 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 Birkenhead
Birkenhead 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Merseyside 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.
