Our coverage in Welling
In Welling, commercial premises range from street-level shops and restaurants to offices in converted and modern buildings, many with managing agents and landlord consents to work through.
That includes premises in DA16 and the surrounding districts. Neighbouring towns we cover include Bexley, Eltham and Thamesmead. Buildings across London range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

- Door size and exposure assessment
- Ambient, electric, water or heat pump air curtain options

The steps for a project in Welling
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.
Select
The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.

Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
What to think about in Welling
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Welling often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Leased premises
If your Welling premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
