In short
Replacing a tired shutter in Wick, 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
- Wick
- Postcode district
- KW1
- Area
- Highlands and Islands
- Survey
- By arrangement
What to specify
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
- Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
- Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
What this work can involve
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Wick?
In Scotland, 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
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
