Insulated roller shutter doors in Colne

In short

If your unit in Colne loses heat through an old single-skin shutter, an insulated roller door is often the simplest fix. You get a free survey, a written fixed price and full commissioning on completion.

Town: Colne
Postcode district: BB8
Area: Lancashire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

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.
Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.

What this work can involve

Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Colne?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Insulated roller shutter doors in Colne: your questions

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

Can you replace our old roller shutter in Colne with an insulated one?

Yes. We recommend a complete new door rather than a new curtain on old parts, and include strip-out and disposal in the quote so the old shutter goes when the new one is fitted.

Does a powered insulated roller door in Colne 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.
