Sliding and folding industrial doors in Hounslow

The short version

For agricultural and industrial buildings in Hounslow, we can replace worn sliding doors, upgrade them with new tracks and leaves, or automate them with the safety devices a powered door needs.

Town: Hounslow
Postcode district: TW3
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
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.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.

What this work can involve

Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.

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

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

Most installations in Hounslow can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Hounslow: your questions

Will a sliding door fit our building in Hounslow?

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 Hounslow 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.

How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Hounslow?

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 Hounslow we confirm the fixed price in writing.
