Options for industrial roller shutters in Cornwall
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
- Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
- Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.

Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Cornwall are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
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 much is an industrial roller shutter in Cornwall?
An electric single-skin steel roller shutter up to about 4 × 4 m has a guide price of £2,395 to £5,495 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. After a free survey in Cornwall, we confirm a fixed price for your opening in writing.
Does an electric roller shutter at our Cornwall site need safety devices?
It depends on the risk assessment. A hold-to-run shutter in view of the operator may need little more than force limiting, while one that closes automatically typically needs a safety edge and photocells, tested to BS EN 12453.
How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Cornwall?
Once the made-to-measure shutter arrives, most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and installation is booked around your opening hours.
