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

Town: Dagenham
Postcode district: RM10
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
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.
Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Dagenham?

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.

How the work is organised

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.

Questions from businesses in Dagenham

Which is better for our Dagenham 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 Dagenham?

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 Dagenham we confirm the fixed price in writing.

Will a sliding door fit our building in Dagenham?

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.
