The short version
Sliding and folding industrial doors for farms, workshops, vehicle sheds and wide-span buildings in Bridgend. We survey the opening and the structure, then recommend a top-hung or bottom-rolling layout that suits it.

Options that matter on site
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- No headroom needed. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
What this work can involve
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bridgend?
In Wales, 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
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Frequently asked questions
Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Mid Glamorgan?
Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Mid Glamorgan, 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.
How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Bridgend?
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.
Can our existing sliding doors in Bridgend 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.
