Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Falmouth?
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.
How the work is organised
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.

Industrial roller shutters in Falmouth: your questions
How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Falmouth?
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.
Can you supply security-rated shutters in Falmouth?
Yes. Where your insurer asks for a rating such as LPS 1175, we supply a shutter whose manufacturer holds that certification and install it to the certified specification. Check the exact rating your insurer wants before ordering.
Do you remove old shutters at sites in Falmouth?
Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old shutter is shown as a separate line in the quote, along with any repairs to the opening. The old door normally comes out as part of the same visit that fits the new one.
