Options that matter on site
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- 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 Rugeley 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
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.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors
Which is better for our Rugeley 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.
