What we fit in Derbyshire
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Derbyshire 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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Questions from businesses in Derbyshire
How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Derbyshire?
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 Derbyshire we confirm the fixed price in writing.
Will a sliding door fit our building in Derbyshire?
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.
How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Derbyshire?
A pair of manual sliding doors on a sound structure is usually fitted in a day or two. Large folding doors, electric operation and new steelwork add time, which we set out with your quote.
