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

Options that matter on site
- 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.
- Hygienic surfaces. Easy-clean surfaces that stand up to regular wash-downs in food areas.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
- Vision panels. Clear panels at eye level so people see each other before pushing through.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Haverhill 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Frequently asked questions
Do you fit traffic doors in food premises around Suffolk?
Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across Suffolk, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
Which traffic door material suits our Haverhill 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 Haverhill 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.
