The short version

We can supply and fit steel sliding and bi-folding doors in Rutherglen and across Lanarkshire, manual or electric, with insulated or single-skin leaves and wicket doors wherever staff need everyday access.

Town: Rutherglen
Postcode district: G73
Area: Lanarkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
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.

Typical scopes of work

Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
Fitting bi-folding doors to a maintenance workshop where overhead gantry cranes rule out a roller shutter or sectional door.
Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Rutherglen 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.
