Options that matter on site
- Double-acting. Leaves open both ways and swing back to centre on their own.
- Hinge options. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let people and drivers spot someone coming the other way.
- Impact-tolerant. Polyethylene and rubber leaves flex or absorb knocks from trolleys and trucks.
- Wear protection. Kick plates and bumper strips take the knocks at trolley height.
Jobs we can carry out
- Supplying rubber traffic doors for a busy pallet truck route in a parcel sorting warehouse.
- Fitting polyethylene traffic doors between a shop floor and stockroom where roll cages damage ordinary doors.
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Kelso 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.
Access, phasing and timing
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.
