What we fit in Rayleigh
- 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.
- 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.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
What this work can involve
- Supplying rubber traffic doors for a busy pallet truck route in a parcel sorting warehouse.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Rayleigh 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in Essex 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
How much do impact traffic doors cost in Rayleigh?
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 Rayleigh.
Which traffic door material suits our Rayleigh 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.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Rayleigh 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.
