What we fit in Margate

Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.

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.
Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Margate 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

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Industrial roller shutters in Margate: your questions

Can you supply security-rated shutters in Margate?

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 Margate 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.

How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Margate?

Once the made-to-measure shutter arrives, most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and installation is booked around your opening hours.
