Options for sectional overhead doors in Edinburgh and the Lothians

Safety devices. Every powered door is fitted with the safety functions its risk assessment needs and force-tested before handover.
Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Vision panels. Glazed rows or full-vision sections bring daylight in and let drivers see the yard.
Paperwork. You get the manufacturer's Declaration of Performance plus commissioning and test records for your files.
Insulated panels. Steel sandwich panels with a foam core keep heat in and noise out; thicker panels are available for temperature-controlled units.

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.
Fitting a bank of insulated sectional doors to a new distribution unit, with high-lift tracks to clear sprinkler mains and lighting.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Edinburgh and the Lothians 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.

Planning the work around your site

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
