- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
- Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
- Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
- Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in North Yorkshire?
In England, 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.
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 North Yorkshire: your questions
How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in North Yorkshire?
Once the made-to-measure shutter arrives, most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and installation is booked around your opening hours.
Does an electric roller shutter at our North Yorkshire 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.
Can you convert our manual shutter in North Yorkshire to electric?
Often, yes, if the barrel, curtain and guides are in good condition. Our guide price for a conversion is £1,195 to £3,195 ex VAT. We become responsible for the conformity paperwork on the converted door and fit the safety devices it needs.
