What to specify

Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
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. 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.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Thornton-Cleveleys 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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Lancashire 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

Will traffic doors in Thornton-Cleveleys 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.

Which traffic door material suits our Thornton-Cleveleys 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 Thornton-Cleveleys?

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.
