Sliding and folding industrial doors in Limavady

In short

Not enough headroom for a shutter at your Limavady building? Sliding and folding doors open sideways instead of upwards, leaving the roof space clear for cranes, lighting, sprinklers and other services.

What we fit in Limavady

Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.

What this work can involve

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.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.

Powered door rules in Northern Ireland

Limavady is in Northern Ireland, where workplace safety is regulated by HSENI under the Health and Safety at Work (Northern Ireland) Order 1978. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 and PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999 require occupiers to keep powered doors safe and maintained. Under the Windsor Framework, EU machinery rules and CE marking continue to apply to powered doors placed on the market here, with the EU Machinery Regulation 2023/1230 applying from 20 January 2027.

How the work is organised

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.
