What we fit in Penicuik
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
Powered door rules that apply in Penicuik
Penicuik 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.

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.
