Options for industrial roller shutters in Gravesend

Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Gravesend 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Your questions about industrial roller shutters

Do you repair roller shutters across Kent?

Yes. We repair most makes of roller shutter across Kent, including motors, laths, guides, springs and bottom rails. Repair visits are chargeable and priced in advance; we quote before any larger repair.

Can you supply security-rated shutters in Gravesend?

Yes. Where your insurer asks for a rating such as LPS 1175, we supply a shutter whose manufacturer holds that certification and install it to the certified specification. Check the exact rating your insurer wants before ordering.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Gravesend 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.
