What to specify
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
- Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
- Manual override. Powered shutters keep a chain or handle override so they open without power.
- Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.
- Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Perth?
In Scotland, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in Perth and Kinross 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.

Your questions about industrial roller shutters
Does an electric roller shutter at our Perth 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 supply security-rated shutters in Perth?
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.
How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Perth?
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.
