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

What to specify
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
Jobs we can carry out
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Edmonton?
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
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.
Can our existing sliding doors in Edmonton 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.
Which is better for our Edmonton 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.
