Industrial door replacement in Edinburgh

Is an old door at your Edinburgh site costing more in repairs than it is worth? We price replacement alongside repair so you can compare, then handle the whole changeover if replacement makes sense.

Town: Edinburgh
Postcode district: EH2
Area: Edinburgh and the Lothians

What to specify

Ongoing servicing. We can service the new door from the start so its history begins on day one.
Opening repairs. Damaged jambs and heads repaired or new framing fitted.
Disposal. Old doors taken away for recycling or disposal.
Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
Right door type. Replace with the same type or move to a door that suits your current needs.

Jobs we can carry out

Stripping out a sectional door with broken springs and an obsolete motor, and fitting a new door with an inverter drive.
Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Edinburgh 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.

How the work is organised

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Strip-out and disposal has a guide price of £345 to £1,195 ex VAT per door, plus the new door, for example £2,395 to £5,495 for an electric single-skin roller shutter. We confirm the full fixed price in writing after a free survey in Edinburgh.

Yes. Surveys for replacements are free. We assess the old door and opening, measure for the new door, and quote a fixed price that lists the door, strip-out, disposal and any opening works separately.

The new door is made to measure before the old one is removed, so a single door is usually stripped out and replaced in a day, with the opening secured again by the end of the visit.
