What to specify
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Powered door rules that apply in Rutherglen
Rutherglen 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.
