What we fit in Ashford (Kent)

Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.
Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.

Typical scopes of work

Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.
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.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Ashford (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.

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.
