Typical scopes of work

Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Hornchurch 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Most installations in Hornchurch can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Industrial roller shutters in Hornchurch: your questions

Does an electric roller shutter at our Hornchurch 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 supply security-rated shutters in Hornchurch?

Yes. Where your insurer asks for a rating such as LPS 1175, we supply a shutter whose manufacturer holds that certification and install it to the certified specification. Check the exact rating your insurer wants before ordering.

Can you convert our manual shutter in Hornchurch 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.
