The short version
We can replace roller shutters, sectional doors, sliding doors and high-speed doors in Dover and across Kent, removing and disposing of the old door and fitting the new one in a single, carefully planned visit.

- Kent
- Survey
- Free for new installations
Options that matter on site
- Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
- Minimal downtime. The new door is ready before the old one comes out, keeping downtime short.
- Ongoing servicing. New door added to a maintenance schedule from year one.
- Disposal. Old doors taken away for recycling or disposal.
What this work can involve
- Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
- Swapping a standard shutter for a security-rated door installed exactly to the manufacturer's certified specification.
- Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Dover?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Dover can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
