Options that matter on site
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
- Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in St Austell?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Sites in and around St Austell vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
