What we fit in Coulsdon
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
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.
- 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.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Coulsdon?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Greater London 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.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors
Will a sliding door fit our building in Coulsdon?
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 repair sliding and folding doors in Coulsdon?
Yes. We replace trolleys, wheels, tracks, guides and damaged cladding on most makes of sliding and folding door. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before carrying out larger repairs or recommending replacement.
Can our existing sliding doors in Coulsdon 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.
