What to specify
- Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
- Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.
- Ongoing servicing. We can service the new door from the start so its history begins on day one.
- Opening repairs. Any damage to the opening is put right so the new door fixes securely.
- Minimal downtime. Made-to-measure door ordered first so the swap takes a day.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Removing a rotted timber frame and fitting new steel jambs before installing a replacement roller shutter.
- 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.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Peebles?
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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Industrial door replacement in Peebles: your questions
Can we change door type when replacing at our Peebles 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.
Should we repair or replace our door in Peebles?
If the door has several faults, recurring problems or parts that are no longer made, replacement is often better value. We price repair and replacement side by side so you can decide on cost and remaining life.
Do you replace doors at multiple sites across the Scottish Borders?
Yes. We replace doors across the Scottish Borders, including planned programmes covering several sites or a whole run of units, phased so that each site keeps operating normally while its doors are being changed.
