Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
Compact coil. The curtain coils above the opening, leaving ceilings free for lights and sprinklers.
Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.

Powered door rules that apply in Runcorn

Runcorn 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

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 Runcorn

Yes. We recommend a complete new door rather than a new curtain on old parts, and include strip-out and disposal in the quote so the old shutter goes when the new one is fitted.

Yes. We repair damaged laths, motors, guides and seals on most makes of insulated roller door across Cheshire. Repair visits are chargeable, and planned servicing helps catch wear before a breakdown.

Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Runcorn unit?

The coil on an insulated curtain is larger than on a single-skin shutter, so we measure the space above the lintel on survey. Where headroom is very tight, the coil can sometimes be fitted outside the opening or a lower-profile option chosen.
