Options for impact traffic doors in Bournemouth
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
What this work can involve
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Bournemouth 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Dorset 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.

Impact traffic doors in Bournemouth: your questions
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Bournemouth 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.
Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Bournemouth?
Usually, yes. We replace leaves, hinges, kick plates and vision panels on most traffic doors, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before ordering replacement parts.
Will traffic doors in Bournemouth help keep areas warm or cool?
They cut draughts and help separate temperature zones, particularly with insulated leaves. For chillers and freezers, a dedicated cold store door is needed, sometimes with traffic doors or strips used inside.
