What we fit in Hamilton
- Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
- Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
- Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
- Minimal downtime. The new door is ready before the old one comes out, keeping downtime short.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing a corroded single-skin roller shutter on a trade unit with an insulated roller door and electric operation.
- Swapping a standard shutter for a security-rated door installed exactly to the manufacturer's certified specification.
- Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Hamilton?
In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Lanarkshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Your questions about industrial door replacement
Can we change door type when replacing at our Hamilton unit?
Usually, yes, subject to headroom, side room and back room. Common upgrades are single-skin to insulated, manual to electric and conventional to high-speed. We check the space and the structure on survey before recommending a door type.
Do you take the old door away from our Hamilton site?
Yes. Strip-out includes removing the old door, springs, guides and drive from site for recycling or disposal. It is priced as a separate line in the quote so you can see exactly what removal costs.
How long will our opening in Hamilton be out of use?
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.
