Automatic shop doors Ashington

Shops across Northumberland with a sound hinged door may only need a swing operator, so we check your Ashington door before suggesting a full replacement. Customers with bags, buggies or walking aids find a powered door easier, which can help your Ashington shop meet its duty to make adjustments.

Work in Ashington is run from Birmingham, roughly 183 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Jobs in NE22, NE62, NE63 are planned alongside Blyth and Morpeth.

What can we fit in Ashington?

Bi-parting sliding doorsTwo leaves slide apart from the centre, giving a wide clear opening where there is wall space on both sides.

Single-slide doorsOne leaf moves to one side, which helps where only one side of the opening has room.

Break-out leavesSliding leaves swing open when pushed, which can provide a means of escape where the fire strategy needs it.

What does it cost in Ashington?

Automatic shop doors usually cost £2,495 to £5,495 ex VAT per entrance, supplied and fitted. Door type, opening width, glass, and whether the frame is new or existing set the range. Break-out leaves, battery backup, access control and power supply work add to it. Manufacturers' warranties cover the motor and controls, and regular servicing is worth budgeting for.

Servicing keeps a powered door safe, so owners across Northumberland should budget for regular visits once their Ashington entrance is working. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Ashington site clean.

Common questions

Do you work in NE22, NE62, NE63?

Yes. Ashington and the NE22, NE62, NE63 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

What happens to an automatic door in a power cut?

It depends on the set-up. Many sliding doors can be pushed open by hand once the drive releases, and doors on an escape route usually have battery backup or break-out leaves. Your fire risk assessment should say what is needed, and we match the door to it.

Do automatic doors need planning permission?

Not usually if the frontage looks much the same, although a visible change can need permission in England and listed buildings need consent for many alterations. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we look at your frontage when we measure up.

Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Ashington?

Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
