Postcode district: PO9
Area: Hampshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
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.

Typical scopes of work

Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Havant?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Sites in and around Havant 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 Havant

Which is better for our Havant 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.

How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Havant?

Our guide price is £5,995 to £24,995 ex VAT, supplied and fitted, depending on size, number of leaves, infill and whether the doors are manual or electric. After a free survey in Havant we confirm the fixed price in writing.

Can our existing sliding doors in Havant be motorised?

Often, if the leaves and track are in good condition. We assess the doors, fit a drive and the safety devices needed, and take on the conformity responsibilities that come with converting a manual door to power.
