Options for industrial roller shutters in Cumbria
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
- Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Cumbria?
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
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
