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

- Postcode district

- Area
- Worcestershire
- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- 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-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
What this work can involve
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
Powered door rules that apply in Malvern
Malvern 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
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.

How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Malvern?
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.

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.

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.
