What to specify
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
- 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.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
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.
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Wilmslow?
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
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Questions from businesses in Wilmslow
How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Wilmslow?
Our guide price is £5,995 to £24,995 ex VAT, supplied and fitted, depending on size, number of leaves, infill and whether the doors are manual or electric. After a free survey in Wilmslow we confirm the fixed price in writing.
Will a sliding door fit our building in Wilmslow?
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 Wilmslow 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.
