What we fit in Chesterfield

Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.

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

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

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.

Industrial roller shutters in Chesterfield: your questions

Does an electric roller shutter at our Chesterfield 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.

Can you convert our manual shutter in Chesterfield to electric?

Often, yes, if the barrel, curtain and guides are in good condition. Our guide price for a conversion is £1,195 to £3,195 ex VAT. We become responsible for the conformity paperwork on the converted door and fit the safety devices it needs.

How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Chesterfield?

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.
