What to specify
- Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
- Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
Jobs we can carry out
- Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
- Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
- 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 Herne Bay?
In England, 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.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Kent 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.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Herne Bay 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.
