Sectional overhead doors in Wigston

Quick answer

Sectional overhead doors for warehouses, workshops and loading bays in Wigston. 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.

Town: Wigston
Postcode district: LE18
Area: Leicestershire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Electric drives. Motorised operation with the controls you need, from a simple push-button station to induction loops and radar.
Insulated panels. Steel sandwich panels with a foam core keep heat in and noise out; thicker panels are available for temperature-controlled units.
Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.
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

Renewing torsion springs and lift cables on a busy loading bay door, with higher-cycle springs where the usage justifies them.
Fitting a bank of insulated sectional doors to a new distribution unit, with high-lift tracks to clear sprinkler mains and lighting.
Adding induction loops and an inverter drive so forklifts can open a busy internal sectional door without stopping.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Wigston 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.

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 Wigston before quoting?

Yes. Surveys for new and replacement doors are free. We measure the opening, headroom and obstructions, check the fixings and power supply, and discuss how the door will be used before we price it.

Can you replace a roller shutter with a sectional door at our Wigston unit?

Usually, yes, provided there is enough headroom and side room for the tracks. Low-headroom track kits cover many older units. We check this on the survey and include strip-out and making good in the quote.

Which safety devices does a powered sectional door in Wigston need?

That comes from the risk assessment for your site, but typically a safety edge or light curtain, spring-break and cable-break protection and limited closing forces tested to BS EN 12453. Busy pedestrian routes may call for more.
