What we fit in Barnes

Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.

Examples of work we can quote for

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Barnes 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

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.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors

How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Barnes?

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.

Will a sliding door fit our building in Barnes?

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.

Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Greater London?

Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Greater London, including timber-clad leaves, bottom-rolling gear for lightweight portal frames and wicket doors so staff and livestock handlers can get in without opening the main leaves.
