- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Wear protection. Replaceable kick plates and bumpers protect the leaves where trolleys hit most.
- Impact-tolerant. Built to take repeated knocks from roll cages and pallet trucks without damage.
Examples of work we can quote for

- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
Door rules for workplaces in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 cover doors on traffic routes, including a clear view through doors that can be pushed open from either side. Under the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010, emergency exit doors must open easily in the direction of escape.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
