Options that matter on site
- Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.
- Conformity paperwork. Handover includes the product and machinery conformity documents plus commissioning records.
- Aftercare. Once fitted, we can service the door on a schedule and repair it, along with doors from other installers.
- Drives and controls. Motors sized to the door and controls matched to your traffic, from a key switch to induction loops.
- All door types. Roller shutters, insulated roller, sectional, high-speed, fire, sliding, hangar and cold store doors.
Jobs we can carry out
- Fitting a freezer door with heated frame and inside release to a new cold room within a food production unit.
- Phasing the replacement of several loading bay doors over consecutive weekends so goods-in stays open during the week.
- Supplying a bottom-rolling sliding door for a wide opening where there is no headroom for a coiled or tracked door.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in the Scottish Borders?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Industrial door installation in the Scottish Borders: your questions
Is the survey free for sites in the Scottish Borders?
Yes, for new installations and replacements. We measure the opening and the space around it, check fixings, power and obstructions, and talk through how the door is used before preparing a written quote. Repair and service visits are charged separately.
Who signs off a new powered door at our the Scottish Borders site?
When we assemble or motorise a door, we take on the manufacturer's role under machinery law: risk assessment, testing, conformity marking and the Declaration of Conformity. You then keep the door maintained as the employer or occupier.
Which door types do you install in the Scottish Borders?
Roller shutters, insulated roller doors, sectional overhead doors, high-speed doors, fire shutters, sliding and folding doors, hangar doors, cold store doors, steel personnel doors, traffic doors and strip curtains, plus loading bay equipment such as levellers and shelters.
