Precision Manufacture of Nuclear Shield Doors: Engineering Excellence at the Core

With over 160 years of engineering excellence behind us, at Oldham Engineering we have built a reputation for delivering high-integrity manufacturing solutions that meet the most demanding standards. 

Our facility spans more than 150,000 sq ft and is fully equipped to support projects across heavy and light machining, complex assembly and turnkey fabrication. Our engineering culture is quality-driven, founded on robust project management, in-house fabrication and machining and extensive experience in nuclear quality Grade 1 equipment and lifetime traceable records.

Specialising in Nuclear Shield Doors

Among our core offerings is the design and manufacture of nuclear shield doors, which are engineered to perform under the strict safety and regulatory regimes of the nuclear industry. Whether for new-build nuclear facilities, decommissioning tasks or bespoke containment applications, our doors are built with precision and care. 

From material selection through to welding, machining, testing and final assembly, we ensure every step is managed in-house and in harmony with our clients’ specifications. For nuclear shield doors our capability extends to coded fabrication in accordance with BS EN 1090 EXC3, BS EN ISO 3834-2 and other relevant standards, supporting full traceability and certification.

Tailored Solutions, Rigorous Standards

We understand that no two projects are identical. For our nuclear shield doors we work closely with our clients to analyse operational requirements, radiation attenuation needs, mechanical and structural constraints and lifecycle maintenance implications. 

Our solutions are bespoke: whether the requirement is for lead-lined shielding, complex hinge and sealing systems or integration with containment housings and assemblies. Compliance and safety are paramount and we maintain an unwavering commitment to the standards and documentation regimes demanded by the nuclear sector.

Supporting the Nuclear Industry’s Future

As the nuclear industry evolves: from new build programmes to decommissioning and clean energy transition the demand for high-performance shield doors and associated containment systems grows. We are proud to play our part, supplying robust, dependable solutions that meet today’s requirements and anticipate tomorrow’s challenges.
