What we fit in Lancashire

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.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Lancashire 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

For busy sites in the North West the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions

Will an insulated roller door cut heating bills at our Lancashire 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.

Does a powered insulated roller door in Lancashire need safety devices?

If the door closes automatically or can trap someone, yes. The risk assessment decides what is needed, typically a safety edge, photocells and closing forces tested to BS EN 12453, plus anti-fall protection on heavier curtains.

Do you repair insulated roller doors across the North West?

Yes. We repair damaged laths, motors, guides and seals on most makes of insulated roller door across the North West. Repair visits are chargeable, and planned servicing helps catch wear before a breakdown.
