Options that matter on site

Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Droylsden 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.

Keeping your site running during the work
