What we fit in Thornaby-on-Tees

Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.
Vision panels. Add a row of vision panels or full-vision aluminium sections for daylight and a clear view of vehicles outside.
Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
Finishes. Choose a colour to match your building and a stucco or ribbed finish that hides minor knocks.

Typical scopes of work

Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.
Renewing torsion springs and lift cables on a busy loading bay door, with higher-cycle springs where the usage justifies them.
Converting a manual chain-operated sectional door to electric operation with a shaft-mounted motor, safety edge and photocells.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Thornaby-on-Tees?

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.

Access, phasing and timing

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
