Options that matter on site

Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
Load path. We decide with your structural engineer whether the slab or the structure carries the door's weight.
Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Dundee 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.

Your questions about hangar and large-span doors

Which hangar door type would suit our building in Dundee?

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.

How much does a hangar door cost in Dundee?

Hangar and large-span doors are priced on survey because each is designed for its opening and structure. Typical projects start from around £39,995 ex VAT. After surveying your site in Dundee, we confirm a fixed price in writing.

Can a large door at our Dundee site be operated without power?

Most powered large doors include a manual or emergency means of operation for power failures. How it works depends on the door type and size, and we explain it at handover and in the user instructions.
