Options for hangar and large-span doors in Wick

Designed per opening. No off-the-shelf sizes: every large door is designed for its building and location.
Wind resistance. Closed doors are designed to resist the wind pressure your site can see without jamming.
Vertical-lift fabric. Reinforced fabric curtains with wind bars that fold up beneath the lintel.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Safety systems. Edge protection, photocells, warning lights, sounders and interlocks.

Examples of work we can quote for

Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.
Designing multi-leaf sliding doors, with a tail-fin cut-out where needed, for a hangar or large-span maintenance building.
Coordinating floor rail installation with the groundworks contractor before new large-span door leaves arrive on site.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Wick 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

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Hangar and large-span doors in Wick: your questions

How long would a large-span door installation take in Wick?

After design and manufacture, installation typically takes from several days to a few weeks depending on the number of leaves and any structural work. The full programme is set out with the quote.

Which hangar door type would suit our building in Wick?

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 work on hangar door projects with our engineer in Wick?

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.
