Options for industrial roller shutters in North Shields

Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices on powered shutters.
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.
Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing a vehicle-damaged shutter in a trade yard with a heavier-gauge curtain and guide-rail protection.
Renewing the bottom rail, floor seal and end locks on a roller shutter that jams in its guides.
Installing perforated shutters across a covered loading area so the space stays ventilated and visible when locked.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in North Shields?

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.

Planning the work around your site

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
