- Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
- Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.
- Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
- Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland
Industrial doors in Ayrshire are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Questions from businesses in Ayrshire
Will a sectional door reduce heating costs at our Ayrshire premises?
An insulated, well-sealed sectional door loses much less heat than a single-skin shutter, and keeping it closed with fast electric operation helps further. Actual savings depend on your building, heating and how often the door is open.
Which safety devices does a powered sectional door in Ayrshire need?
That comes from the risk assessment for your site, but typically a safety edge or light curtain, spring-break and cable-break protection and limited closing forces tested to BS EN 12453. Busy pedestrian routes may call for more.
Can you replace a roller shutter with a sectional door at our Ayrshire unit?
Usually, yes, provided there is enough headroom and side room for the tracks. Low-headroom track kits cover many older units. We check this on the survey and include strip-out and making good in the quote.
