Options that matter on site

Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.

Typical scopes of work

Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Fitting a galvanised roller shutter to a new bin store or recycling compound, with a lockable bottom rail.
Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Stowmarket?

In England, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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 Stowmarket

Does an electric roller shutter at our Stowmarket 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 Suffolk?

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

Can you convert our manual shutter in Stowmarket to electric?

Often, yes, if the barrel, curtain and guides are in good condition. Our guide price for a conversion is £1,195 to £3,195 ex VAT. We become responsible for the conformity paperwork on the converted door and fit the safety devices it needs.
