Options that matter on site
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
- 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.
- Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
What this work can involve
- Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
- Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
- Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in St Albans?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
