The short version
Sliding and folding industrial doors for farms, workshops, vehicle sheds and wide-span buildings in Bromley. We survey the opening and the structure, then recommend a top-hung or bottom-rolling layout that suits it.

Options that matter on site
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Bromley 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
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Questions from businesses in Bromley
Which is better for our Bromley 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.
Will a sliding door fit our building in Bromley?
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.
Can our existing sliding doors in Bromley 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.
