Options that matter on site
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. We hang the door from above or run it on a floor rail depending on what the building can support.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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.
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Powered door rules that apply in Abingdon
Abingdon 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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Oxfordshire 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.

Questions from businesses in Abingdon
Can our existing sliding doors in Abingdon 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.
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Abingdon?
Yes. We replace trolleys, wheels, tracks, guides and damaged cladding on most makes of sliding and folding door. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before carrying out larger repairs or recommending replacement.
Which is better for our Abingdon 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.
