What we fit in Waltham Abbey

Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Waltham Abbey?

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

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.

Insulated roller shutter doors in Waltham Abbey: your questions

Can you replace our old roller shutter in Waltham Abbey 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.

Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Waltham Abbey 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.

Does a powered insulated roller door in Waltham Abbey need safety devices?

If the door closes automatically or can trap someone, yes. The risk assessment decides what is needed, typically a safety edge, photocells and closing forces tested to BS EN 12453, plus anti-fall protection on heavier curtains.
