Options that matter on site
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
- Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
- Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
What this work can involve
- Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
- 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 Lewisham 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.
Planning the work around your site
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Frequently asked questions
