Options for industrial roller shutters in South Glamorgan
- Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
- Mounting options. Fixed inside, in the reveal or face-fixed outside with a protective hood.
- 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.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in Wales
Industrial doors in South Glamorgan 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
Most installations in South Glamorgan can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in South Glamorgan
Does an electric roller shutter at our South Glamorgan 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 South Glamorgan?
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.
Do you remove old shutters at sites in South Glamorgan?
Yes. Strip-out and disposal of the old shutter is shown as a separate line in the quote, along with any repairs to the opening. The old door normally comes out as part of the same visit that fits the new one.
