Options that matter on site
- Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
- Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
- Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
- Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
- Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
What this work can involve
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
- Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
- Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
