What to specify
- Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
- Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
- Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
- Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Braintree?
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
For busy sites in Essex the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
