What to specify
- Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
- 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.
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
- Hinge options. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing insulated traffic doors between a chilled preparation room and an ambient packing area.
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
- Supplying rubber traffic doors for a busy pallet truck route in a parcel sorting warehouse.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Folkestone 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Folkestone can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Folkestone 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.
Do you fit traffic doors in food premises around Kent?
Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across Kent, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Folkestone?
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.
