Options for industrial door installation in Sudbury

Loading equipment. The door, leveller, shelter and impact protection are specified together so the whole bay works as one.
Conformity paperwork. Handover includes the product and machinery conformity documents plus commissioning records.
Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
Fixed price. A written fixed price confirmed after the survey, before any work begins.
All door types. One installer for every common industrial door, from simple shutters to fire-rated and high-speed doors.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting a freezer door with heated frame and inside release to a new cold room within a food production unit.
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.

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

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

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
