Options that matter on site
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- 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.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in West Glamorgan?
In Wales, 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.
How the work is organised
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.
