What we fit in Barnstaple
- Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.
- Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
- Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
- Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Barnstaple?
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.
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 Barnstaple
Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Barnstaple premises?
It loses much less heat than a single-skin shutter, especially with good seals and quick electric operation. How much you save depends on your building, heating system and how long the door stays open.
Can you replace our old roller shutter in Barnstaple with an insulated one?
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.
How long does insulated roller door installation take in Barnstaple?
Most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day once the made-to-measure door has arrived. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote so you can plan around it.
