Industrial roller shutters in Wimbledon

Quick answer

Replacing a tired shutter in Wimbledon, or converting a manual one to electric? We quote a fixed price in writing after surveying the opening, then fit, test and hand over the door.

Town: Wimbledon
Postcode district: SW19
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.

What this work can involve

Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
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 Wimbledon?

In England, 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

For busy sites in Greater London the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Questions from businesses in Wimbledon

Can you supply security-rated shutters in Wimbledon?

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.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Wimbledon 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 convert our manual shutter in Wimbledon 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.
