What we fit in Oban

Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Oban are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Planning the work around your site

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Questions from businesses in Oban

Do you repair cold store doors in Oban?

Yes. We replace gaskets, frame heaters, rollers, tracks, releases and drives on most makes. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before larger repairs or recommend replacement when the leaf itself has failed.

Can you replace a freezer door at our Oban site without losing stock?

We plan the change with you and your refrigeration engineer. Many doors can be swapped in a day, sometimes with stock moved or the plant set back temporarily, so the room returns to temperature quickly.

Can our cold store door in Oban be made electric?

Often, yes, if the leaf and track are sound, or with a new electric sliding door. Powered cold store doors need safety edges and photocells and a drive suited to the temperature.
