What to think about for curved automatic doors in Magherafelt
- Curved doors on landmark buildings in Magherafelt are often lit at night. Plan canopy lighting, signage and any warm air curtain alongside the door, so cables and fixings are in place before the glass goes in.
- Listed buildings and conservation areas in Magherafelt may need consent for a curved entrance. Drawings showing the radius, frame colour and canopy detail help the planning authority understand the proposal.
- Consider a spare curved panel for busy entrances in Magherafelt. It costs more at the start, but a broken leaf can then be replaced without waiting for new glass to be bent.
- Curved entrances in Magherafelt are often installed during a wider refurbishment. Working with the main contractor on dates, power and protection of the finished floor helps the door go in once, without return visits.
- The floor must be level across the whole arc, and the matwell and floor finish need cutting to the same radius as the guides. Coordinate the floor layer with the door programme so the curves match.

Standards and rules in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, disability access duties come from the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, because the Equality Act 2010 does not apply there. Service providers and employers are expected to make reasonable adjustments, and an automatic door is a common one at entrances. New entrances and some alterations need building control approval in Northern Ireland, so check with your council’s building control before the work is ordered.
In Northern Ireland machinery, including a new or converted powered door, carries the CE marking (with UKNI added where a UK body carried out the conformity assessment), and the EU Machinery Regulation applies there from 20 January 2027. Workplace law (the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993) expects powered doors to have suitable and effective features to stop them trapping anyone and, where needed for safety, to open by hand unless they open automatically if the power fails. Doors at work must also be kept in efficient working order under a suitable system of maintenance.
How it works
- Get in touch. Call, email or use the form with the address and what you have in mind. If you are not sure which type of door suits, describe the entrance and we will suggest the options worth considering.
- Survey and advice. The survey costs nothing and carries no obligation. The engineer checks the site and explains which options suit the entrance, the people using it and the budget, before anything is priced.
- Quote in writing. You receive a fixed, itemised quote for curved automatic doors in Magherafelt, covering equipment, installation, testing and handover, with the lead time and payment stages set out clearly.
- Install, test, explain. The engineer installs and commissions the door, tests the sensors, safety functions and emergency behaviour, and walks you through the controls. The handover pack records what was installed and tested.
Send us photos of the frontage in Magherafelt and any drawings you have, and we will arrange a free survey for a curved automatic entrance.
Curved automatic doors in Magherafelt: questions
Do you install curved automatic doors in Magherafelt?
Yes. We arrange half-round, full-round and segmental curved doors for buildings in Magherafelt and across County Londonderry. The survey, installation and commissioning are carried out by specialist automatic door engineers working under our management, and we remain the contracting party from the first drawing to handover.
Can you give me a price for curved automatic doors in Magherafelt?
Our guide starts from £14,995 excluding VAT (per entrance), the same guide price we use across the UK. The free site survey in Magherafelt confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
How long does a curved door project in Magherafelt take?
Curved doors are typically 8 to 14 weeks from order once the drawings are approved, because the glass and frame are made to your radius. Installation then usually takes two to four days for a half-round door, and longer for a full-round door with a roof. The quote sets out the expected programme for your building.
Who looks after a curved door in Magherafelt once it is fitted?
You can arrange servicing with us, with each visit priced in writing beforehand. Curved doors need regular attention to the floor guides and carriages that follow the arc. A trained engineer should check the safety functions at least once a year, and busy hotel or store entrances are usually serviced more often.
What should I send before the survey in Magherafelt?
A few photos of the door from inside and outside, rough measurements of the opening, the address and a note of how the entrance is used. If the door already has an operator, a photo of any label on it helps. With that, the engineer arrives prepared, the survey takes less of your time and we can put the quote for curved automatic doors together more easily.
How are payments structured for work in Magherafelt?
Payment stages are set out in the quote before you accept it. Larger or made-to-order jobs may involve a deposit and a balance on completion, while smaller jobs may be invoiced once the work is finished. Nothing is charged for the survey itself, and the terms you accept are the terms that apply.
Which accessibility law applies in Magherafelt?
In Northern Ireland the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 applies, because the Equality Act 2010 does not extend there. Service providers and employers are expected to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people, and an automatic door is a common one at entrances.
