Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in South Ockendon, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
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.

Frequently asked questions
Do you fit traffic doors in food premises around Essex?
Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across Essex, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our South Ockendon 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.
Which traffic door material suits our South Ockendon 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.
