Options that matter on site
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Altrincham 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.
Planning the work around your site
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
