Town: Kirkcaldy
Postcode district: KY1
Area: Fife
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.

What this work can involve

Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Kirkcaldy 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.
