Options for sectional overhead doors in Rochdale

Electric drives. Motorised operation with the controls you need, from a simple push-button station to induction loops and radar.
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.
Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.
Safety devices. Every powered door is fitted with the safety functions its risk assessment needs and force-tested before handover.

What this work can involve

Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Adding induction loops and an inverter drive so forklifts can open a busy internal sectional door without stopping.
Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Rochdale 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.

How the work is organised

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
