Options for impact traffic doors in Gwent

Double-acting. Push through from either side and the leaves close themselves behind you.
Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
No power needed. No motors, sensors or controls to maintain.

Typical scopes of work

Installing insulated traffic doors between a chilled preparation room and an ambient packing area.
Fitting traffic doors at the entrance to a picking zone to keep dust out of the main warehouse.
Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.

Door rules for workplaces in Wales

Doors in Gwent 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, as it applies in Wales, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Access, phasing and timing

Sites in and around Gwent 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 Gwent

Which traffic door material suits our Gwent 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.

Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Gwent?

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.

Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Gwent 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.
