Options that matter on site
- Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
- Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.
- Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
What this work can involve
- Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
- Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.
- Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
Powered door rules that apply in Torquay
Torquay 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.
