What to specify
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
- 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.
- Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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 Prestwich, 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.
How the work is organised
Sites in and around Prestwich vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Prestwich
Will traffic doors in Prestwich 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.
Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Prestwich?
Usually, yes. We replace leaves, hinges, kick plates and vision panels on most traffic doors, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before ordering replacement parts.
How long does it take to fit traffic doors in Prestwich?
A pair of traffic doors usually takes a few hours to fit once made to size. Work can often be done between shifts or outside opening hours, so normal operations are barely affected.
