What to specify
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- Vision panels. Clear panels at eye level so people see each other before pushing through.
- Hygienic surfaces. Smooth, washable leaves suited to food and pharmaceutical areas.
- Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire workplaces are covered by regulation 18 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992: a door that can be pushed open from either side must give, when closed, a clear view of the space close to both sides, which is why swing doors on traffic routes have vision panels. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.
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.

Questions from businesses in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire
Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Usually, yes. We replace leaves, hinges, kick plates and vision panels on most traffic doors, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before ordering replacement parts.
Do you fit traffic doors in food premises around Scotland?
Yes. We fit hygienic polyethylene, insulated and stainless steel traffic doors in food production, catering and retail sites across Scotland, with the leaf material chosen to suit your cleaning regime, chemicals and audit requirements.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire warehouse?
Generally not. Forklifts are too heavy and fast for most traffic doors and quickly damage the leaves. For forklift routes we would usually recommend a high-speed door or a strip curtain instead.
