Options for impact traffic doors in Cambridge
- No power needed. No motors, sensors or controls to maintain.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- Leaf choices. Polyethylene, rubber, insulated or stainless-faced leaves to suit the area.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing insulated traffic doors between a chilled preparation room and an ambient packing area.
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
- Fitting traffic doors at the entrance to a picking zone to keep dust out of the main warehouse.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Cambridge workplaces are covered by regulation 18 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992: a door that can be pushed open from either side must give, when closed, a clear view of the space close to both sides, which is why swing doors on traffic routes have vision panels. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Cambridgeshire 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.

Your questions about impact traffic doors
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Cambridge warehouse?
Generally not. Forklifts are too heavy and fast for most traffic doors and quickly damage the leaves. For forklift routes we would usually recommend a high-speed door or a strip curtain instead.
How long does it take to fit traffic doors in Cambridge?
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.
How much do impact traffic doors cost in Cambridge?
Our guide price is £895 to £2,495 ex VAT for a pair of impact traffic doors, supplied and fitted. Material, size, insulation and vision panels set the price, which we confirm in writing after a free survey in Cambridge.
