What to specify

Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Swinton 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

Most installations in Swinton 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.

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.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Swinton 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.
