Options for sliding and folding industrial doors in Pontefract
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- 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.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Typical scopes of work
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
- Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Pontefract?
In England, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Pontefract 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.
