What are Sectional Overhead Doors Used For?
Sectional overhead doors, London customers, are regarded as industrial doors, rather than commercial doors. What makes this so is that industrial doors are built larger and hardier than their commercial counterparts. While commercial doors are usually chosen for shopfronts, offices, etc., industrial doors are favoured for larger industrial applications, such as:
- Warehouses
- Manufacturing Depots
- Seaports
- Airports
- Fire Stations
- Recycling Facilities
- Storage Facilities
Industrial sectional overhead doors, London customers, comprise a vertically opening door that’s typically built using steel sections with interlocking hinged joints. As the door opens, the sections fold back as the entire door slides up into the ceiling area. In short, they open and close the same way as domestic sectional overhead doors.
This makes industrial sectional doors ideal for situations where space is limited in front of the door, where a vehicle must be parked immediately in front, or where there’s reduced head room. Typically, sectional overhead doors are used in cases where a degree of thermal and sound insulation is needed. They are often double skinned and built to provide enhanced weather protection.
And with the inclusion of a three-phase operating motor, sectional doors can be entirely automated. That’s why they are often found at fire stations, as time is of the essence and there’s little of it to be spent opening and closing doors. Now that we’ve discussed what sectional overhead doors are and what they’re used for, let’s look at the benefits.
Benefits of Sectional Overhead Doors
If you’re considering investing in a brand-new industrial door, you might be considering the other options available. Here’s a few reasons why you should consider sectional overhead doors:
- Easy to Repair and Customise
- Energy Efficiency
- Space-Saving
- Galvanised Construction
- Easy to Operate
Sectional overhead doors are comprised of individual pieces that are slotted together. Because of the modular design of these doors, it’s easy to remove metal slats and replace them with transparent inserts that serve as windows. Plus, should the pieces ever be damaged, they can be easily replaced without replacing the entire door.
These doors are built using materials that perform exceptionally regarding thermal and sound insulating performance. These doors are also built in such a way that minimises any gaps through which heat can escape.
As stated above, sectional overhead doors are ideal for environments where space is limited, such as warehouses. The door does not protrude outwards or inwards, as it slides up into the ceiling area. This is useful for situations where vehicles need to enter or exit at regular intervals as drivers won’t need to worry about damaging the sides of their vehicles on stray handles or low-hanging canopies.
Thanks to the galvanised construction of sectional overhead doors, London business owners can be assured of outstanding strength and durability. The unparalleled weather protection provided by these doors will resist even the harshest elements. This ensures that the internal space is protected and that the doors serve you well for many years.
Lastly, sectional overhead doors can be operated manually, mechanically, or through powered operation. Which ever method you choose, they are very easy to operate, designed with simplicity in mind. There’s no complex process to learn and they can be operated by anyone.
Sectional Overhead Doors Installation, Repair and Maintenance
If you require a new set of sectional overhead doors, London customers need look no further than BGS. We’ll schedule a time and date for one of our engineers to pay you a visit. Upon arrival, they’ll take measurements and discuss your requirements before presenting you with a FREE, no-obligation quotation.
If you accept, your new doors will be supplied, customised to your specifications. We can supply like-for-like doors or more advanced alternatives – you decide. Your door will be delivered and installed by our professional installation team who’ll ensure that the door is tested.
Even the best commercial and industrial doors fitted by a proven team won’t last forever without regular upkeep. Time, use, and the elements all take their toll and costly issues begin to crop up as the years march by. Maintenance is routine upkeep that can be carried out at regular intervals, as often as is required.
Servicing usually takes place once or twice per year and represents a complete overhaul. A typical servicing encompasses a range of tasks, including:
- Part Replacements
- Spot Repairs
- Minor Adjustments
- Refurbishments
- Upgrades
- And More
The purpose is to keep things running smoothly and root out any underlying problems before they become serious, costly issues. Regular servicing will keep your doors compliant, safe to use, and minimise downtime and expensive repair costs. All the work we carry out is recorded in a Yellow Door Wallet. This is often required by insurance companies in line with the terms of your policy.
Even regular maintenance and servicing is no guarantee that your doors will never need fixing. Things can and will go wrong, and nothing will protect a door if a vehicle collides with it. Fortunately, we’re on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, so give us a call at any time.
We’ll dispatch an engineer from one of our strategically positioned depots located nationwide. They’ll arrive in around four hours or less, often in under one hour. Upon arrival, they’ll secure the doors, make them safe, and determine the work needed to fix them. Our vans double up as mobile workshops and carry trade-critical tools, equipment, components, and parts.
We can affect first-time repairs in most cases, though if a second visit is needed, rest assured your door will be made safe and a temporary fix installed. This will keep things running until we can return.
Other Services Offered by BGS
In addition to installing, servicing, maintaining, and repairing sectional overhead doors, customers can come to us for other services. This includes the full range of services just mentioned applied to other entrance options, including:
- Roller Shutter Doors
- High-Speed Doors
- Security Gates and Grilles
- Barriers and Exit Lanes
- Roller Shutter Doors
Furthermore, we offer additional services, including manual to electrical upgrades, calematic wheel chocks, dock levellers and shelters, and fire and smoke curtains.
Perhaps your current doors are manual or mechanically operated and you’d like to automate them. You could replace the doors outright, but if the doors are still perfectly serviceable, this would be a waste of money. We can upgrade virtually any door, equipping it with a state-of-the-art operator converting your manual door to an electric one.
Next, calematic wheel chocks – easily one of the best vehicle restraint systems available. These chocks are retractable, so sit flush with the ground when not deployed. They are linked to sensors that trigger their operation when the main service hatch is opened. And thanks to the traffic light system, you’ll always know whether the chocks are engaged or retracted.
On the subject of dock equipment, dock levellers and shelters are also important features no warehouse area should be without. Dock levellers create a bridge between the rear of the lorry and the loading bay, offsetting any height difference and eliminating the gap between both. Meanwhile, dock shelters protect your employees and any goods or equipment during loading and unloading.
Lastly, fire and smoke curtains are an essential fire safety feature designed to create effective barriers that resist heat, smoke, and fire. These life-saving features can spell the difference between life and death, and no commercial or industrial property should be without them.
