Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Morecambe

Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
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 Morecambe 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

For busy sites in Lancashire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors

Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Lancashire?

Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Lancashire, 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.

Can our existing sliding doors in Morecambe 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.

Which is better for our Morecambe 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.
