Options that matter on site

Security. Bottom-rail locks and shoot bolts, with LPS 1175 rated products available.
Manual override. If the power fails, the shutter can still be wound open by hand.
Compact coil. Nothing runs back under the roof: the shutter coils up neatly above the lintel.
Steel curtains. Galvanised steel laths in gauges to suit the width and the level of abuse expected.
Colour finishes. Plain galvanised or powder-coated to a RAL colour.

What this work can involve

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

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

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

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.
