Quick answer
Sliding and folding industrial doors for farms, workshops, vehicle sheds and wide-span buildings in Swindon. We survey the opening and the structure, then recommend a top-hung or bottom-rolling layout that suits it.

Options that matter on site
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
- 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 Swindon?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Wiltshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Do you repair sliding and folding doors in Swindon?
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.
How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Swindon?
A pair of manual sliding doors on a sound structure is usually fitted in a day or two. Large folding doors, electric operation and new steelwork add time, which we set out with your quote.
Can our existing sliding doors in Swindon 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.
