What we fit in Margate
- Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
- Compact coil. The curtain coils above the opening, leaving ceilings free for lights and sprinklers.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
- Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
- Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.

Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Margate are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Insulated roller shutter doors in Margate: your questions
Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Margate premises?
It loses much less heat than a single-skin shutter, especially with good seals and quick electric operation. How much you save depends on your building, heating system and how long the door stays open.
Do you repair insulated roller doors across Kent?
Yes. We repair damaged laths, motors, guides and seals on most makes of insulated roller door across Kent. Repair visits are chargeable, and planned servicing helps catch wear before a breakdown.
Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Margate 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.
