Industrial doors for properties in Portsmouth
Surveys in Portsmouth and the surrounding area are arranged directly with you, as part of our coverage across Hampshire. We also cover Gosport, Fareham and Ryde, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Portsmouth sits some 15 miles to the south-east of Southampton.
For warehouses, depots and workshops in and around Portsmouth, the door is sized to the opening, the wind on that elevation and the number of cycles a day.
Each industrial door is specified for its own opening, so a site in Portsmouth gets a door matched to its size, use and power supply rather than a single standard.

Frequently asked questions
Can you replace a door in a working warehouse?
Yes. We plan the work to keep the bay out of action for as short a time as possible, often a single day for a like-for-like door.
Should I choose insulated or single-skin?
Insulated if the building is heated or you get condensation; single-skin steel for unheated stores, farms and compounds.
Is the survey free in Portsmouth?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Portsmouth are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for industrial roller shutter doors in Portsmouth?
Possibly. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. We recommend checking with your local council first.
