Managing Director

Harry left King James School in Knaresborough in 2012. He enrolled himself to study bricklaying at the Leeds College of Building. Following two years at LBC, Harry completed his studies and worked as an apprentice builder for Commercial Property Refurb. Whilst at CPR, he went from being a builder’s labourer, builder, digger driver and site foreman!

Having spent 7 enjoyable and educational years with CPR, the group MD, Arthur Brownridge acquired what was then known as A. Fox Industrial Doors. This business was run by Alan & Nikki Fox for 20+ years. As part of the acquisition, Harry was then promoted into Managing Director of Fox Industrial Doors in 2017. The aim was to learn the trade and make a success of the company. With Alan & Nikki having left to start a new venture, Harry was left to run the company on his own at the age of 22 years old. 8 years on, a few more faces have since joined Harry and the team continue to evolve and push the company forward.

Outside of work, Harry enjoys early mornings walking his dog, Gardening and he also attends Leeds United home matches where he is a season ticket holder.

Wakefield

Installations Manager

Harry joined the team in the summer of 2023. At the time he had joined us, he had worked since leaving school in the building trade. Like Harry Brownridge, he also attended Building College and chose to study Plastering. He spent 4 years plastering, drylining and taping and jointing across the UK. During this period he gained a great understanding of how building sites operated. He has worked on some high specification sites, for example Grantley Hall when they had conducted their refurb in 2021-22.

Following the covid lockdown, Harry decided to change professions and trained as a Quantity Surveyor for a year. At this role, he would be reading plans, pricing a variety of building works, managing tradesmen and completing minor projects.

He then joined Fox Doors as an Installations Manager and hit the ground running. He worked closely with Harry Brownridge for a year understanding Industrial Doors. He now has a great understanding of doors and manages his own projects.

Outside of work, Harry loves motorcycling. He regularly goes on his bike for days out/trips around the Peak District, Yorkshire Dales & York Moors with his Dad, sometimes attending the Isle of Man TT. He also loves football, being a big Liverpool fan. You may see him at Anfield from time to time.
