Sliding and folding industrial doors in Bradford

Quick answer

Not enough headroom for a shutter at your Bradford building? Sliding and folding doors open sideways instead of upwards, leaving the roof space clear for cranes, lighting, sprinklers and other services.

Town: Bradford
Postcode district: BD1
Area: West Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

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.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.

Examples of work we can quote for

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.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Bradford 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

Most installations in Bradford can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Bradford: your questions

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

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 Bradford we confirm the fixed price in writing.

Will a sliding door fit our building in Bradford?

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.

Can our existing sliding doors in Bradford be motorised?

Often, if the leaves and track are in good condition. We assess the doors, fit a drive and the safety devices needed, and take on the conformity responsibilities that come with converting a manual door to power.
