Options for insulated roller shutter doors in Portsmouth

Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
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.

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

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.

How the work is organised

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair insulated roller doors across Hampshire?

Yes. We repair damaged laths, motors, guides and seals on most makes of insulated roller door across Hampshire. Repair visits are chargeable, and planned servicing helps catch wear before a breakdown.

Does a powered insulated roller door in Portsmouth 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.

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