Options for insulated roller shutter doors in Canvey Island

Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.

Typical scopes of work

Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Canvey Island?

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.

Access, phasing and timing

Your questions about insulated roller shutter doors

Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Canvey Island 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.

Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Canvey Island 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.
