Options for insulated roller shutter doors in the Highlands and Islands
- Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
- Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
- Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
- Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
- Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.
- 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 the Highlands and Islands?
In Scotland, 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.
