From enquiry to handover in Paisley

Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
Local points to consider
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Leased premises
If your Paisley premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
