What to specify
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Typical scopes of work
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- 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.
Powered door rules that apply in Brighouse
Brighouse is in England, 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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Brighouse: your questions
Which is better for our Brighouse 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.
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Brighouse?
Yes. We replace trolleys, wheels, tracks, guides and damaged cladding on most makes of sliding and folding door. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before carrying out larger repairs or recommending replacement.
Can our existing sliding doors in Brighouse 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.
