What we fit in Swansea

Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
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.
Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.

What this work can involve

Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.

Powered door rules that apply in Swansea

Swansea is in Wales, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Sites in and around Swansea vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
