In short
Sectional overhead doors for warehouses, workshops and loading bays in Bristol. We survey the opening, specify the panels, tracks and drive to suit how the door is used, then install and commission it with full handover paperwork.

Options that matter on site
- Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
- Vision panels. Glazed rows or full-vision sections bring daylight in and let drivers see the yard.
- Finishes. Choose a colour to match your building and a stucco or ribbed finish that hides minor knocks.
- Insulated panels. Steel sandwich panels with a foam core keep heat in and noise out; thicker panels are available for temperature-controlled units.
- Track layouts. We pick the track after measuring headroom and obstructions, so the door clears lights, sprinklers and crane rails.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
- Converting a manual chain-operated sectional door to electric operation with a shaft-mounted motor, safety edge and photocells.
- Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.
Powered door rules that apply in Bristol
Bristol 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in the South West 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.
