Covering Mansfield and nearby
Coverage for curved automatic doors runs across the NG18 postcode district and out into the surrounding parts of Nottinghamshire. Wherever the building is, the arrangements stay the same: one contracting party, a written price before work, and a specialist engineer working under our management on site.
Out-of-hours work is common in a city, where retail entrances may only be available before opening and office lobbies at weekends. Work in Mansfield can be arranged early in the morning, in the evening or at weekends where the building needs it, with any extra cost shown in the written price.
Nearby towns we also list for curved automatic doors (straight-line distance): Mansfield Woodhouse (2.2 miles), Sutton-in-Ashfield (2.6 miles), Kirkby-in-Ashfield (2.9 miles), Hucknall (6.9 miles), Alfreton (8.0 miles), Arnold (9.6 miles).
What to think about for curved automatic doors in Mansfield
- Busy entrances with curved floor guides collect grit from the street. A good matwell and regular cleaning of the guide channels keep the leaves running smoothly around the arc.
- A full-round door needs a roof or canopy that can be supported and drained. On exposed sites across Nottinghamshire, think about how rainwater will leave the canopy without running down the glass into the threshold.
- Curved glass cannot be cut to size on site. Allow for the longer lead time in any refurbishment programme, and do not book shopfitters or floor layers for the entrance until the door has a delivery date.
- Department stores and shopping centres often have landlord fit-out rules for entrances. Ask centre management about approved working hours, hot works and fire alarm connections before the installation date is fixed.
- Hotel entrances in Mansfield see bursts of arrivals with luggage and coach parties. Choose a diameter and clear opening that let several people and cases pass together without waiting for a second cycle.

Standards and rules in England
Under the Equality Act 2010, service providers and employers must make reasonable adjustments for disabled people, which can include altering a physical feature such as a heavy entrance door. New entrances and some alterations count as building work, so check with building control before the work is ordered.
In Great Britain a new or converted powered door must meet the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 before it is first used, and can carry the UKCA or the CE marking. Workplace law (the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992) 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
- Tell us about the entrance. Send the address, a few photos and a rough size of the opening, and say how the door is used. That is enough for us to suggest options for curved automatic doors and book a survey in Mansfield.
- Free site survey. A specialist engineer working under our management measures the opening, checks the frame, floor, head height and power, and talks through how people use the entrance. There is no charge and no obligation.
- Fixed written quote. You receive a fixed, itemised written quote with the specification, lead time, payment stages and warranty terms. The price does not change unless the scope does, and any change is agreed in writing first.
- Installation and handover. The door is fitted on the agreed dates, then set up, tested and documented with reference to BS EN 16005. You are shown the controls and the simple checks to make, and receive the handover paperwork.

Curved automatic doors in Mansfield: questions
Can the curved door in Mansfield be installed while we stay open?
Often, yes, for a half-round replacement, with the opening secured overnight and the work planned around quieter hours. A full-round door with a new roof usually needs the entrance closed for longer, so a second entrance is helpful. We agree the arrangements with you before the date is fixed.
How much should I budget for curved automatic doors in Mansfield?
Our guide starts from £14,995 excluding VAT (per entrance), the same guide price we use across the UK. The free site survey in Mansfield confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
Can you work with our architect or main contractor in Mansfield?
Yes. Many curved doors are part of a larger refurbishment or new build. We can work from the architect's setting-out drawings, agree the structural opening, canopy and floor details with the contractor, and fit the door at the right stage of the programme so finished floors and glazing are protected.
Is the site survey for a curved door in Mansfield free?
Yes. For a new curved entrance, the survey costs nothing and carries no obligation. The engineer measures the frontage, checks the structure, floor and power, and discusses the options with you. You then receive drawings and a fixed, itemised written quote.
What does the written quote for curved automatic doors in Mansfield include?
The quote lists each item separately: the door or equipment, installation, electrical connections where we provide them, removal of anything being replaced, testing and handover. It is a fixed price for the work described, so it does not change unless the scope changes, and any change is agreed with you in writing first.
How do you make sure the door works for disabled visitors in Mansfield?
We look at who uses the entrance: wheelchair users, people with walking aids, parents with buggies and older visitors. That shapes the opening width, the opening speed, the hold-open time and where push pads or sensors go. Service providers and employers have duties to make reasonable adjustments under equality and accessibility law, and an automatic door is a common one.
Which building regulations apply to a new automatic entrance in Mansfield?
In England the guidance is Approved Document M (Volume 2) for access, Approved Document B for fire safety and escape routes, and Approved Document K for glazing and powered doors. A new entrance can count as building work, so building control should be involved before it is ordered.
