Options that matter on site

Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.

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.
Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Newton Aycliffe?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Your questions about insulated roller shutter doors

Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Newton Aycliffe 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.
