Options that matter on site
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Bedfordshire 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
Most installations in Bedfordshire can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
