The short version
We can install high-speed doors in Lanarkshire and throughout Scotland, from self-repairing fabric doors on internal forklift routes to insulated spiral doors that serve as the main external opening of a building.

What to specify
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
What this work can involve
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Powered door rules that apply in Lanarkshire
Lanarkshire 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
