Hangar and large-span doors in Penicuik

What we fit in Penicuik

Drives and controls. Electric drives per leaf or central, with manual or emergency operation.
Multi-leaf sliding. Classic hangar doors with leaves that slide on parallel tracks and stack clear of the opening.
Refurbishment. Older hangar doors renewed with new wheels, guides, drives and cladding.
Load path. Bottom-rolling on floor rails or top-hung from the structure, agreed with your engineer.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.

What this work can involve

Installing heavy-duty sectional doors with wind-resistant panels across the frontage of a bus or coach garage.
Recladding the leaves of a large sliding door with a corrosion-resistant finish suited to an exposed site.
Refurbishing manual large-span sliding doors with new bottom wheels, top guides and an electric drive unit on each leaf.

Powered door rules that apply in Penicuik

Penicuik 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.

Questions from businesses in Penicuik

Can a large door at our Penicuik 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.

Do you work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Penicuik?

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 Penicuik?

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.
