What to specify
- 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.
- Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
- Supplying rubber traffic doors for a busy pallet truck route in a parcel sorting warehouse.
- Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Frome, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Frome vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Impact traffic doors in Frome: your questions
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Frome 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.
Which traffic door material suits our Frome 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.
How much do impact traffic doors cost in Frome?
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 Frome.
