Sliding and folding industrial doors in Mitcham

The short version

For agricultural and industrial buildings in Mitcham, 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: Mitcham
Postcode district: CR4
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. We hang the door from above or run it on a floor rail depending on what the building can support.
Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.

Examples of work we can quote for

Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
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.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Mitcham 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

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Questions from businesses in Mitcham

Can our existing sliding doors in Mitcham 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 Mitcham 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.

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.
