Options that matter on site
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- 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.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- 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 Lytham St Annes?
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 Lytham St Annes 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.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Lytham St Annes: your questions
Which is better for our Lytham St Annes 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.
Can our existing sliding doors in Lytham St Annes 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.
How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Lytham St Annes?
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.
