Tight headroom, cluttered ceiling, still need a warm door? For units in Gloucester (GL1), we can install insulated roller doors that coil neatly above the opening and leave the roof space completely clear.

Options for insulated roller shutter doors in Gloucester
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
- Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
- Compact coil. The curtain coils above the opening, leaving ceilings free for lights and sprinklers.
- Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
- Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Gloucester are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Gloucestershire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Insulated roller shutter doors in Gloucester: your questions
How long does insulated roller door installation take in Gloucester?
Most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day once the made-to-measure door has arrived. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote so you can plan around it.
Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Gloucester 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.
Can you replace our old roller shutter in Gloucester 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.
