Options that matter on site
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
Powered door rules that apply in Chesham
Chesham 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
