What to specify

Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.

Jobs we can carry out

Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.

Supplying a security-rated roller shutter, installed to the certified specification, to meet an insurer's requirement for a high-value stockroom.

Powered door rules that apply in Hawick

Hawick is in Scotland, 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.

How the work is organised

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Questions from businesses in Hawick

Does an electric roller shutter at our Hawick 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 repair roller shutters across the Scottish Borders?

Yes. We repair most makes of roller shutter across the Scottish Borders, including motors, laths, guides, springs and bottom rails. Repair visits are chargeable and priced in advance; we quote before any larger repair.

How quickly can a roller shutter be fitted in Hawick?

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.
