Options that matter on site

Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.

Typical scopes of work

Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.

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

In Scotland, 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.
