What we fit in Wolverhampton

Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
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.
Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.

What this work can involve

Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Wolverhampton 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.

Planning the work around your site

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Wolverhampton: your questions

Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around the West Midlands?

Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across the West Midlands, 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.

How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Wolverhampton?

Our guide price is £5,995 to £24,995 ex VAT, supplied and fitted, depending on size, number of leaves, infill and whether the doors are manual or electric. After a free survey in Wolverhampton we confirm the fixed price in writing.

Which is better for our Wolverhampton 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.
