Options that matter on site

Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.

Examples of work we can quote for

Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.

Powered door rules that apply in St Albans

St Albans is in England, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.
