Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Workington 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Sites in and around Workington vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
