- Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
- Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
- Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
Typical scopes of work
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
- Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.
- Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
Powered door rules that apply in Ampthill
Ampthill 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
