What to specify

Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
Safety devices. Every powered door is fitted with the safety functions its risk assessment needs and force-tested before handover.
Paperwork. Declaration of Performance, user instructions and commissioning records handed over on completion.

Jobs we can carry out

Converting a manual chain-operated sectional door to electric operation with a shaft-mounted motor, safety edge and photocells.
Replacing a draughty single-skin roller shutter with an insulated sectional door and a low-threshold wicket door.
Adding induction loops and an inverter drive so forklifts can open a busy internal sectional door without stopping.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Dumbarton 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.

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.
