Options that matter on site
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Impact-tolerant. Built to take repeated knocks from roll cages and pallet trucks without damage.
- Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
- Supplying rubber traffic doors for a busy pallet truck route in a parcel sorting warehouse.
- Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Ashton-in-Makerfield 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.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
