Options that matter on site
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- No power needed. No motors, sensors or controls to maintain.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
- Double-acting. Push through from either side and the leaves close themselves behind you.
- Wear protection. Replaceable kick plates and bumpers protect the leaves where trolleys hit most.
What this work can involve
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
- Installing insulated traffic doors between a chilled preparation room and an ambient packing area.
- Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Orpington 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
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Impact traffic doors in Orpington: your questions
How much do impact traffic doors cost in Orpington?
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 Orpington.
Will traffic doors in Orpington 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.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Orpington 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.
