What to specify
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Powered door rules that apply in Yate
Yate 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
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.
