Options that matter on site
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Typical scopes of work
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Caterham?
In England, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Questions from businesses in Caterham
Will a sliding door fit our building in Caterham?
It needs wall space to the side for the leaves to slide past, or room for folded leaves to stack. We measure this on survey and choose between sliding, telescopic and folding layouts to suit what is there.
How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Caterham?
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.
Which is better for our Caterham 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.
