Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Cornwall
- 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.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Powered door rules that apply in Cornwall
Cornwall 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
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.
