What we fit in Berkhamsted

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.

Hinge options. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.

Typical scopes of work

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.
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 Berkhamsted, 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

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 Berkhamsted: your questions

Which traffic door material suits our Berkhamsted 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.

Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Berkhamsted 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.

Will traffic doors in Berkhamsted 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.
