What to specify
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
- No power needed. No motors, sensors or controls to maintain.
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
What this work can involve
- 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.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Eastleigh, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Hampshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Which traffic door material suits our Eastleigh 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.
How long does it take to fit traffic doors in Eastleigh?
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.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Eastleigh 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.
