What to specify

Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Mounting options. We mount the shutter wherever it fits most easily, including outside with a hood over the coil.
Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.
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.

What this work can involve

Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Galashiels 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.

Planning the work around your site

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
