What to specify
- Hygienic surfaces. Smooth, washable leaves suited to food and pharmaceutical areas.
- 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. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
- Fitting traffic doors at the entrance to a picking zone to keep dust out of the main warehouse.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Yate, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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 Yate
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Yate 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.
Will traffic doors in Yate 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.
Which traffic door material suits our Yate 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.
