Insulated roller shutter doors in Gloucestershire

Quick answer

Insulated roller doors suit premises in Gloucestershire that need better thermal performance without giving up roof space. We supply, fit and commission them, and can service them afterwards on a schedule.

Area: Gloucestershire
Nation: England
Main town: Gloucester
Survey: Free for new installations

What we fit in Gloucestershire

Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
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.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.

What this work can involve

Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.
Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Gloucestershire?

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

Most installations in Gloucestershire can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in Gloucestershire

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

Does a powered insulated roller door in Gloucestershire 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.

Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Gloucestershire 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.
