What we fit in Wickford
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
- Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
- Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Wickford are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
