Options for industrial roller shutters in Arbroath

Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Arbroath?

In Scotland, 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
