Impact traffic doors in Oakham

Trolleys and pallet trucks wrecking ordinary doors at your Oakham site? Double-acting impact traffic doors are built to be pushed through and swing back closed on their own, shift after shift.

Options for impact traffic doors in Oakham

Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.

What this work can involve

Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
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 Oakham, 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

For busy sites in Rutland 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.

Questions from businesses in Oakham

How much do impact traffic doors cost in Oakham?

Our guide price is £895 to £2,495 ex VAT for a pair of impact traffic doors, supplied and fitted. Material, size, insulation and vision panels set the price, which we confirm in writing after a free survey in Oakham.

Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Oakham 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.

Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across Rutland, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
