The short version

Town: York
Postcode district: YO1
Area: North Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Steel curtains. Heavier lath gauges for wide or exposed doors; lighter profiles where space and budget are tight.
Compact coil. The curtain winds onto a barrel above the opening, leaving floor and roof space free.
Manual or electric. Hand-operated for occasional use, electric for anything opened through the working day.
Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.

Jobs we can carry out

Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in York 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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
