Options that matter on site
- Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- 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.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
Powered door rules that apply in Wiltshire
Wiltshire 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.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Sliding and folding industrial doors in Wiltshire: your questions
Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around the South West?
Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across the South West, 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.
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Wiltshire?
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.
Which is better for our Wiltshire 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.
