Options that matter on site

Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
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.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.

Safety law for industrial doors in Wales

Industrial doors in Newport (Gwent) 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

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
