What we fit in Falkirk

Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Refurbishment. Sound but tired doors can be brought back with new running gear, drives and safety devices.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Falkirk 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Most installations in Falkirk can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Can a large door at our Falkirk 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.
