What to specify
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Typical scopes of work
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Broadstairs 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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Frequently asked questions
How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Broadstairs?
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 Broadstairs we confirm the fixed price in writing.
Will a sliding door fit our building in Broadstairs?
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.
Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Kent?
Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Kent, including timber-clad leaves, bottom-rolling gear for lightweight portal frames and wicket doors so staff and livestock handlers can get in without opening the main leaves.
