The short version
Wide opening, low eaves or an older structure in Hawick (TD9)? A sliding or folding door can be designed around it, with the weight of the leaves carried wherever the building can safely take it.

Options that matter on site
- Electric operation. Motorised leaves with the safety devices needed to protect against crushing and shearing.
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- Insulated options. Insulated panel infill and edge seals for heated buildings.
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
What this work can involve
- Supplying insulated sliding leaves with edge seals for a converted building now used as a heated workshop.
- Renewing seized trolleys and a distorted overhead track on large sliding doors to a vehicle shed.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland
Industrial doors in Hawick 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
For busy sites in the Scottish Borders the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
