What to specify
- Vision panels. Add a row of vision panels or full-vision aluminium sections for daylight and a clear view of vehicles outside.
- Paperwork. You get the manufacturer's Declaration of Performance plus commissioning and test records for your files.
- Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Track layouts. We pick the track after measuring headroom and obstructions, so the door clears lights, sprinklers and crane rails.
What this work can involve
- Fitting a bank of insulated sectional doors to a new distribution unit, with high-lift tracks to clear sprinkler mains and lighting.
- Supplying sectional doors in a RAL colour matched to the existing cladding as part of a unit refurbishment between tenants.
- Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Plymouth 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
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
