Options that matter on site

Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.

Powered door rules that apply in Merseyside

Merseyside 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.

Planning the work around your site

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Industrial roller shutters in Merseyside: your questions

Does an electric roller shutter at our Merseyside 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.

Do you remove old shutters at sites in Merseyside?

Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old shutter is shown as a separate line in the quote, along with any repairs to the opening. The old door normally comes out as part of the same visit that fits the new one.

Can you supply security-rated shutters in Merseyside?

Yes. Where your insurer asks for a rating such as LPS 1175, we supply a shutter whose manufacturer holds that certification and install it to the certified specification. Check the exact rating your insurer wants before ordering.
