What we fit in Hackney

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.
Paperwork. You get the manufacturer's Declaration of Performance plus commissioning and test records for your files.
Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.

Typical scopes of work

Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Fitting a bank of insulated sectional doors to a new distribution unit, with high-lift tracks to clear sprinkler mains and lighting.
Converting a manual chain-operated sectional door to electric operation with a shaft-mounted motor, safety edge and photocells.

Powered door rules that apply in Hackney

Hackney 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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Greater London 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.
