What we fit in Welling
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- 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.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket 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 Welling?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Welling 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.
