Sliding and folding industrial doors in Pudsey

The short version

Each sliding or folding door project in Pudsey starts with a free survey of the opening, side room, floor and structure, followed by a written fixed price before any work starts.

Town: Pudsey
Postcode district: LS28
Area: West Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Electric operation. Motor drives with safety edges, photocells and guarding where needed.
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.
Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.

Examples of work we can quote for

Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Pudsey 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.

How the work is organised

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors

Will a sliding door fit our building in Pudsey?

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 Pudsey 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.

Which is better for our Pudsey 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.
