What we fit in Shirley
- Safety devices. Motorised shutters get the safety functions their risk assessment needs before handover.
- Manual or electric. Push-up, chain hoist or motorised operation depending on how often the door opens.
- Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
- Colour finishes. Leave it galvanised or choose a colour that matches the building.
- Security. Locking options for everyday security, and certified rated shutters where insurers ask for them.
What this work can involve
- Converting hand-chained shutters on a storage unit to electric operation with key-switch controls and safety edges.
- Face-fixing a roller shutter with a steel hood where internal racking leaves no room behind the opening.
- Replacing a run of rusted shutters on a block of trade units, finished in one matching RAL colour.
Powered door rules that apply in Shirley
Shirley is in England, 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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Questions from businesses in Shirley
Do you repair roller shutters across the West Midlands?
Yes. We repair most makes of roller shutter across the West Midlands, including motors, laths, guides, springs and bottom rails. Repair visits are chargeable and priced in advance; we quote before any larger repair.
Can you supply security-rated shutters in Shirley?
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.
Does an electric roller shutter at our Shirley 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.
