Options for industrial roller shutters in Leicester
- Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
- Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
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.
- Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Leicester 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Sites in and around Leicester vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
