Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Doncaster

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.
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.
Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.

Jobs we can carry out

Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
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.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Doncaster are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Access, phasing and timing

For busy sites in South Yorkshire 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.

Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around South Yorkshire?

Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across South Yorkshire, 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.

Which is better for our Doncaster 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.
