What to specify
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
- Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Glenrothes?
In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
