What to specify
- Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
- Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
- Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
What this work can involve
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland
Industrial doors in Airdrie 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.
Planning the work around your site
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.
