What we fit in Fareham

Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
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.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.

What this work can involve

Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Fareham 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

Sites in and around Fareham vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Fareham

Which is better for our Fareham 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.

Will a sliding door fit our building in Fareham?

It needs wall space to the side for the leaves to slide past, or room for folded leaves to stack. We measure this on survey and choose between sliding, telescopic and folding layouts to suit what is there.

How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Fareham?

A pair of manual sliding doors on a sound structure is usually fitted in a day or two. Large folding doors, electric operation and new steelwork add time, which we set out with your quote.
