Options that matter on site

Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.

Jobs we can carry out

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.

Powered door rules that apply in Strood

Strood is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Keeping your site running during the work

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions

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.

How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Strood?

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.

Does an electric roller shutter at our Strood 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.
