Pendle Doors has been named Employer of the Year at the BIBAs 2026 and awarded Runner-Up in the Family Business of the Year category, building on its previous BIBAs success and marking another significant milestone in the company’s continued growth journey.
The awards were announced at the prestigious BIBAs 2026 ceremony, held at the renowned Blackpool Tower Ballroom and attended by some of Lancashire’s most successful businesses, entrepreneurs, manufacturers, and innovators.
The achievements continue Pendle Doors’ strong track record at the BIBAs. In 2025, the company was crowned Medium Business of the Year and named Runner-Up in the Employer of the Year category. Returning a year later to secure the Employer of the Year title demonstrates the company’s ongoing commitment to investing in its people, culture, and future.
Pendle Doors was shortlisted in four highly competitive categories:
The Employer of the Year win recognises the company’s commitment to creating a positive workplace culture, investing in employee development and wellbeing, and supporting the progression of its growing workforce.
For Pendle Doors, the Employer of the Year award represents far more than business success. The company believes its people are its greatest asset, and the award reflects the dedication, professionalism, and passion shown every day by employees across the organisation.
The recognition also acknowledges Pendle Doors’ continued commitment to a workplace built around teamwork, development, and shared success.
Being named Runner-Up in the Family Business of the Year category was equally meaningful for the business. Having operated as a family-run organisation for almost seven decades, Pendle Doors has held on to the principles that have guided it since its founding, and these values continue to shape company culture and decision-making across every area of the business.
The recognition highlights how family values can thrive alongside sustained growth, innovation, and operational excellence.
The achievements at the BIBAs 2026 reflect the values that underpin everything Pendle Doors does. We deliver products and services to the highest standards of quality, and we act with integrity by being honest, accountable, and leading by example. Progression means continuously learning, improving, and embracing new ideas, whilst teamwork sees everyone working together towards shared goals.
We are equally committed to the environment, creating a safe and supportive workplace whilst minimising waste, and to customer satisfaction, providing exceptional service and quality at every opportunity.
These values have helped establish Pendle Doors as a trusted supplier within the industry and support its long-term ambition to become one of the UK’s most trusted providers of high-quality door solutions.
Whilst the awards are a chance to celebrate recent achievements, Pendle Doors sees the recognition as motivation to keep investing in its people, enhancing customer experiences, and raising standards across the business.
The company would like to thank its employees, customers, suppliers, partners, and the BIBAs team for their continued support and contribution to this success.
“Winning Employer of the Year and being named Runner-Up Family Business of the Year is an incredible honour for everyone at Pendle Doors. Whilst we are immensely proud of the awards themselves, they represent something much bigger than a trophy. They reflect the dedication of our people, the loyalty of our customers, the support of our partners, and the values that have guided our business since 1957.
Building on last year’s success makes this achievement even more special. We remain committed to investing in our people, delivering exceptional quality, protecting and saving lives through the products we manufacture, and continuing to build a business that makes Lancashire proud.”
Founded in 1957, Pendle Doors is one of Lancashire’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of high-quality certified fire-rated door solutions. Built on strong family values, the company continues to invest in its people, products, and processes whilst providing exceptional service to customers across the UK.
