The short version
If your sliding hangar doors in Arbroath have become heavy, noisy or hard to move, we can renew wheels, guides and drives, or replace the doors with a modern large-span system if refurbishment no longer makes sense.

Options that matter on site
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
- Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
- Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland
Industrial doors in Arbroath 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.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Arbroath?
Yes. We coordinate loads, fixings, floor rails and steelwork with your structural engineer and main contractor so the door and the building are designed together, and we agree a programme before manufacture.
Which hangar door type would suit our building in Arbroath?
It depends on headroom, side space, structure and how often the door moves. Sliding doors need side space, vertical-lift fabric doors need headroom, and large sectional doors suit big but not extreme openings. We recommend after survey.
Do you service large doors across Angus and Dundee?
Yes. We service and repair hangar and large-span doors across Angus and Dundee, including running gear, drives, controls and safety devices. Service and repair visits are chargeable and quoted before work starts.
