Covering Pembroke Dock and nearby
From shops and surgeries to schools, care homes and private houses, any building in the SA72 postcode district can be covered for frameless glass automatic doors. Specialist engineers working under our management carry out the work, and you deal with us as the contracting party from start to finish.
Many buildings in Pembroke Dock are older, with timber frames, thick walls, steps or uneven thresholds. These affect where an operator and sensors can go, and the engineer checks them on site before anything is fitted or adjusted.
Nearby towns we also list for frameless glass automatic doors (straight-line distance): Milford Haven (4.3 miles), Haverfordwest (7.7 miles), Carmarthen (29.4 miles).
What to think about for frameless glass automatic doors in Pembroke Dock
- 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.
- The header needs a rigid fixing. In modern offices in Pembroke Dock with suspended ceilings, the operator is usually fixed to the slab above with a steel support, which the survey designs in from the start.
- Cleaning staff at busy venues in Pembroke Dock should use non-abrasive products on frameless doors, keep the floor guide clear of grit and report any chipped glass edge straight away.
- Glass partitions in office buildings across Dyfed 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.
- Clear glass is easy to walk into. Plan manifestation at the outset, whether frosted bands or a pattern based on your logo, rather than adding stickers after the door is fitted.

Standards and rules in Wales
Under the Equality Act 2010, service providers and employers in Wales 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
- 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 frameless glass automatic doors in Pembroke Dock, 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.

Frameless glass automatic doors in Pembroke Dock: questions
Do we need building approval for a frameless door in Pembroke Dock?
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.
Is there a guide price for frameless glass automatic doors in Pembroke Dock?
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 Pembroke Dock 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 Pembroke Dock?
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 Pembroke Dock 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 you service doors in Pembroke Dock after installing them?
Yes. We recommend a trained engineer checks the safety functions at least once a year, with service intervals set by the manufacturer's instructions and how heavily the door is used; busy doors are often serviced more often. Servicing can follow on from the installation, with the price agreed in writing and a record left after every visit.
What do you need from us for parking and access in Pembroke Dock?
Somewhere for the engineer's van as close to the entrance as possible, and a clear working area around the door. If parking is restricted, loading rules apply or the site has security procedures, tell us when you book. Those details go into the plan so the visit is not held up on the day.
Do businesses in Pembroke Dock have to fit automatic doors?
There is no blanket requirement. Service providers and employers must make reasonable adjustments for disabled people under the Equality Act 2010, and Welsh building regulations guidance expects entrances that are easy to open. An automatic door is a common way to meet both.
