The short version
Wide opening, low eaves or an older structure in New Malden (KT3)? A sliding or folding door can be designed around it, with the weight of the leaves carried wherever the building can safely take it.

Options that matter on site
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Jobs we can carry out
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Powered door rules that apply in New Malden
New Malden is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Questions from businesses in New Malden
Which is better for our New Malden 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.
