What we fit in Bristol
- Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
- Wear protection. Replaceable kick plates and bumpers protect the leaves where trolleys hit most.
- Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- Hinge options. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
What this work can involve
- Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
- Fitting traffic doors at the entrance to a picking zone to keep dust out of the main warehouse.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Bristol, the Workplace Regulations 1992 set the basics: doors suitably constructed, swing doors giving a clear view through when closed, and maintenance under regulation 5. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, an emergency exit door must open easily in the direction of travel and must not be locked or fastened so it cannot be opened immediately in an emergency.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Questions from businesses in Bristol
Which traffic door material suits our Bristol site?
Polyethylene suits most warehouse and food areas, rubber takes heavier pallet truck impacts, insulated leaves help in chilled areas and stainless steel suits kitchens. We recommend one after seeing your traffic and cleaning needs.
How long does it take to fit traffic doors in Bristol?
A pair of traffic doors usually takes a few hours to fit once made to size. Work can often be done between shifts or outside opening hours, so normal operations are barely affected.
Do you fit traffic doors in food premises around the South West?
Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across the South West, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
