Sliding and folding industrial doors in Annan

The short version

Not enough headroom for a shutter at your Annan building? Sliding and folding doors open sideways instead of upwards, leaving the roof space clear for cranes, lighting, sprinklers and other services.

Town: Annan
Postcode district: DG12
Area: Dumfries and Galloway
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Top-hung or bottom-rolling. We hang the door from above or run it on a floor rail depending on what the building can support.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.

What this work can involve

Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Annan?

In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Keeping your site running during the work

Sites in and around Annan vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
