Options that matter on site

Insulated panels. Steel sandwich panels with a foam core keep heat in and noise out; thicker panels are available for temperature-controlled units.
Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
Paperwork. You get the manufacturer's Declaration of Performance plus commissioning and test records for your files.
Finishes. Choose a colour to match your building and a stucco or ribbed finish that hides minor knocks.
Vision panels. Glazed rows or full-vision sections bring daylight in and let drivers see the yard.

What this work can involve

Renewing torsion springs and lift cables on a busy loading bay door, with higher-cycle springs where the usage justifies them.
Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Converting a manual chain-operated sectional door to electric operation with a shaft-mounted motor, safety edge and photocells.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Govan 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

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.
