Options that matter on site
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
- Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
- Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- 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 Romford 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
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.

Questions from businesses in Romford
Can you supply security-rated shutters in Romford?
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.
Do you repair roller shutters across Greater London?
Yes. We repair most makes of roller shutter across Greater London, including motors, laths, guides, springs and bottom rails. Repair visits are chargeable and priced in advance; we quote before any larger repair.
Does an electric roller shutter at our Romford 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.
