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

Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Nottingham
- 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.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Powered door rules that apply in Nottingham
Nottingham is in England, 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.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Nottingham can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
