What to think about for frameless glass automatic doors in County Tyrone
- Glass partitions in office buildings across County Tyrone are often supplied by a fit-out contractor. Share their drawings with us so the door glass, gaps and finishes match the rest of the screens.
- Laminated glass is worth considering for ground-floor doors. It stays in place if broken, which keeps the building secure until a replacement leaf can be made.
- Showrooms in County Tyrone with large displays, or vehicles moving in and out, may want a wide bi-parting frameless door with a hold-open mode for deliveries.
- Every edge and fitting on a frameless door is visible. Choose a top rail and clamp finish, such as satin stainless or black, that suits the rest of the ironmongery in the building.
- Hotels and restaurants in County Tyrone often want the door to stay open on warm days and close in bad weather. A programme switch with hold-open and automatic modes makes that a simple daily choice.

Standards and rules in Northern Ireland
The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 require a powered door to have a means to prevent it trapping anyone and a means to open it if the power fails. Guidance on access to buildings is in Technical Booklet R, and building control approval is needed for new entrances.
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.
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.
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 frameless glass automatic doors and book a survey in County Tyrone.
- 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.
For an all-glass entrance in County Tyrone that is measured, fitted and set up properly, contact us and book your free site survey.
Frameless glass automatic doors in County Tyrone: questions
Do we need building approval for a frameless door in County Tyrone?
Replacing a door like for like does not always need approval, but new entrances and wider building work can. Building regulations guidance on access to buildings applies to new buildings and to building work on existing ones, and the details differ in each UK nation. Your local building control or building standards service can confirm what applies.
How are prices worked out for frameless glass automatic doors in County Tyrone?
Our guide starts from £5,495 excluding VAT (per door set), the same guide price we use across the UK. The free site survey in County Tyrone confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
Will a frameless door suit our street entrance in County Tyrone?
It depends on exposure. Sheltered entrances, recessed doorways and doors behind a canopy usually suit frameless glass well. A door facing straight onto a windy street may suffer from draughts and noise. We will give you an honest view at the survey and, where needed, suggest a framed door or a frameless inner door in a lobby.
What should we do if the frameless door in County Tyrone is damaged?
If the glass is chipped or cracked, switch the door off, keep people away from the damaged leaf and contact us. A repair or replacement visit is priced in writing before an engineer attends, and replacement glass is quoted before it is ordered. Laminated glass usually stays in place until it can be replaced.
Do I need permission from a landlord or the council before work in County Tyrone?
It depends on the building. Tenants usually need the landlord's written consent before changing an entrance, and some changes to a shopfront or external door need planning permission. The survey notes anything that may need consent. We can supply drawings and product details to support an application, but the owner or tenant makes it.
Will the building stay secure while the entrance is being changed?
We plan to keep the entrance usable or secure throughout. Where a door has to come out, the work is sequenced so the opening is closed up before the engineer leaves, or a temporary door or hoarding is arranged when a longer gap cannot be avoided. How this is handled for your site in County Tyrone is agreed before work starts.
Which accessibility law applies in County Tyrone?
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.
