What to specify
- Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
- Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
- Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
- Supplying full-vision aluminium sections for a vehicle workshop door so technicians get daylight without opening the door.
- Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Powered door rules that apply in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire
Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire 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.
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.
