The short version
Industrial roller shutters for warehouses, yards, workshops and stores in Rochester. We survey the opening, recommend the lath, drive and mounting position, then fit and commission the shutter in a day in most cases.

Options that matter on site
- Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
- Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
- Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Jobs we can carry out
- Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Rochester 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.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Rochester site need safety devices?
