Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Buxton
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
What this work can involve
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Buxton 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.
Access, phasing and timing
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.
