Options that matter on site

Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Oadby 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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Leicestershire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
