What to specify

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.
Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.

What this work can involve

Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.

Powered door rules that apply in Bridlington

Bridlington 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors

Can our existing sliding doors in Bridlington be motorised?

Often, if the leaves and track are in good condition. We assess the doors, fit a drive and the safety devices needed, and take on the conformity responsibilities that come with converting a manual door to power.

Which is better for our Bridlington 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.
