Town: Bournemouth
Postcode district: BH2
Area: Dorset
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
Electric drives. Motorised operation with the controls you need, from a simple push-button station to induction loops and radar.

Examples of work we can quote for

Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.
Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
Supplying sectional doors in a RAL colour matched to the existing cladding as part of a unit refurbishment between tenants.

Powered door rules that apply in Bournemouth

Bournemouth 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.

Your questions about sectional overhead doors

Do you survey sites in Bournemouth before quoting?

Will a sectional door reduce heating costs at our Bournemouth premises?

An insulated, well-sealed sectional door loses much less heat than a single-skin shutter, and keeping it closed with fast electric operation helps further. Actual savings depend on your building, heating and how often the door is open.
