What to specify

Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
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.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.

What this work can involve

Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.

Powered door rules that apply in Mid Glamorgan

Mid Glamorgan is in Wales, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Access, phasing and timing

Sites in and around Mid Glamorgan 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 Mid Glamorgan: your questions

Which is better for our Mid Glamorgan 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 Mid Glamorgan?

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 Mid Glamorgan we confirm the fixed price in writing.

Can our existing sliding doors in Mid Glamorgan 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.
