What we fit in Livingston
- Double-acting. Push through from either side and the leaves close themselves behind you.
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
- Leaf choices. Polyethylene, rubber, insulated or stainless-faced leaves to suit the area.
- Impact-tolerant. Built to take repeated knocks from roll cages and pallet trucks without damage.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
- Renewing cracked leaves, kick plates and gravity hinges on traffic doors in a busy service corridor.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Livingston 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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to fit traffic doors in Livingston?
A pair of traffic doors usually takes a few hours to fit once made to size. Work can often be done between shifts or outside opening hours, so normal operations are barely affected.
Can you repair our existing traffic doors in Livingston?
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.
Are traffic doors suitable for forklift routes at our Livingston 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.
