Insulated roller shutter doors in Borehamwood

The short version

If your unit in Borehamwood loses heat through an old single-skin shutter, an insulated roller door is often the simplest fix. You get a free survey, a written fixed price and full commissioning on completion.

Town: Borehamwood
Postcode district: WD6
Area: Hertfordshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Compact coil. The curtain coils above the opening, leaving ceilings free for lights and sprinklers.
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.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.

What this work can involve

Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.

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

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

For busy sites in Hertfordshire 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 Borehamwood: your questions

How much does an insulated roller shutter door cost in Borehamwood?

Our guide price for an electric insulated roller door up to about 4 × 4 m is £3,195 to £7,495 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. We survey your Borehamwood opening free of charge and then put a fixed price in writing.

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