Area: Argyll and Bute
Survey: By arrangement

Options that matter on site

Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.
Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Helensburgh?

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.

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.
