What to specify
- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
- Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
- Electric drives. Shaft-mounted motors with push-button, remote, loop or radar control, and inverter drives for high-cycle bays.
- Vision panels. Glazed rows or full-vision sections bring daylight in and let drivers see the yard.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- 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 Bicester
Bicester 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Oxfordshire 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.
