What to specify
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- 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.
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.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Powered door rules that apply in Stroud
Stroud 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
For busy sites in Gloucestershire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Stroud: your questions
Will a sliding door fit our building in Stroud?
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 Stroud 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.
How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Stroud?
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 Stroud we confirm the fixed price in writing.
