What we fit in Middleton

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.
Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.

Jobs we can carry out

Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.
Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.
Replacing a corroded single-skin shutter on a heated workshop with an insulated roller door and radio remote control.

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

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

Sites in and around Middleton vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Your questions about insulated roller shutter doors

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

Does a powered insulated roller door in Middleton 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.
