Options that matter on site
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
- Double-acting. Push through from either side and the leaves close themselves behind you.
- Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
- Fitting traffic doors at the entrance to a picking zone to keep dust out of the main warehouse.
- Installing insulated traffic doors between a chilled preparation room and an ambient packing area.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Oswestry, 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.
Planning the work around your site
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.

Your questions about impact traffic doors
Will traffic doors in Oswestry 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 Oswestry 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 Oswestry 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.
