Insulated roller shutter doors in Kent

The short version

Insulated roller shutter doors for heated workshops, trade units and vehicle bays in Kent. We survey the opening, check there is headroom for the coil and fit an electric door that keeps the warmth in and the weather out.

Area: Kent
Nation: England
Main town: Maidstone
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
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

Replacing a corroded single-skin shutter on a heated workshop with an insulated roller door and radio remote control.
Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
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 Kent?

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.

Planning the work around your site

Most installations in Kent can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions

How long does insulated roller door installation take in Kent?

Most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day once the made-to-measure door has arrived. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote so you can plan around it.

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