Options that matter on site

Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Electric drives. Motorised operation with the controls you need, from a simple push-button station to induction loops and radar.
Track layouts. We pick the track after measuring headroom and obstructions, so the door clears lights, sprinklers and crane rails.
Wicket doors. Integrated pass doors, including low-threshold versions, for staff access without opening the main door.
Paperwork. You get the manufacturer's Declaration of Performance plus commissioning and test records for your files.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Renewing torsion springs and lift cables on a busy loading bay door, with higher-cycle springs where the usage justifies them.

Powered door rules that apply in Lockerbie

Lockerbie 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

Sectional overhead doors in Lockerbie: your questions

Will a sectional door reduce heating costs at our Lockerbie 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 Lockerbie 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.

How much is a sectional overhead door in Lockerbie?

Our guide price for an electric, 40 mm insulated sectional door up to about 4 × 4.5 m is £3,495 to £8,495 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. The fixed price for your opening in Lockerbie is confirmed in writing after a free survey.
