What we fit in Gwent
- Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
- Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
Jobs we can carry out
- Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
- Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
- Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
Powered door rules that apply in Gwent
Gwent is in Wales, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Planning the work around your site
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions
Does an electric roller shutter at our Gwent 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.
How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Gwent?
Once the made-to-measure shutter arrives, most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and installation is booked around your opening hours.
Can you convert our manual shutter in Gwent 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.
