What to specify
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
- 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.
- Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Powered door rules that apply in Watford
Watford 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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Hertfordshire 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.
