What to specify

Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
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.
Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.

Typical scopes of work

Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Hamilton?

In Scotland, 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

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
