Options for hangar and large-span doors in Ayrshire
- Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
- Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
- Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.
- Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
- Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
What this work can involve
- Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
- Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
- Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.
Powered door rules that apply in Ayrshire
Ayrshire is in Scotland, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
