What to specify
- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
- Wicket doors. Integrated pass doors, including low-threshold versions, for staff access without opening the main door.
- Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
- Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Gainsborough?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
How the work is organised
Sites in and around Gainsborough vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
