What to specify
- Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
- Colour choice. Powder-coated RAL finishes to match cladding and building trims.
- Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
- Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
What this work can involve
- Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
- Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.
- Replacing a corroded single-skin shutter on a heated workshop with an insulated roller door and radio remote control.
Powered door rules that apply in Lancaster
Lancaster is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
