What we fit in Kinross

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.
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. Leaves move sideways, so nothing coils above or runs under the roof.

Typical scopes of work

Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Automating a pair of heavy bi-parting sliding doors with a drive motor, safety edges and photocells.
Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Kinross 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.

How the work is organised

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.

Frequently asked questions

Can our existing sliding doors in Kinross be motorised?

Often, if the leaves and track are in good condition. We assess the doors, fit a drive and the safety devices needed, and take on the conformity responsibilities that come with converting a manual door to power.

How long does it take to fit sliding doors in Kinross?

A pair of manual sliding doors on a sound structure is usually fitted in a day or two. Large folding doors, electric operation and new steelwork add time, which we set out with your quote.

Which is better for our Kinross site, top-hung or bottom-rolling?

Top-hung keeps the floor flush but needs a strong structure overhead. Bottom-rolling suits lighter buildings but needs a clean, protected floor rail. We recommend one after checking both on survey.
