What to specify
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. We hang the door from above or run it on a floor rail depending on what the building can support.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Crewe?
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
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Frequently asked questions
Will a sliding door fit our building in Crewe?
It needs wall space to the side for the leaves to slide past, or room for folded leaves to stack. We measure this on survey and choose between sliding, telescopic and folding layouts to suit what is there.
Which is better for our Crewe site, top-hung or bottom-rolling?
Top-hung keeps the floor flush but needs a strong structure overhead. Bottom-rolling suits lighter buildings but needs a clean, protected floor rail. We recommend one after checking both on survey.
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Crewe?
Yes. We replace trolleys, wheels, tracks, guides and damaged cladding on most makes of sliding and folding door. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before carrying out larger repairs or recommending replacement.
