Survey: Free for new installations

What we fit in Skelmersdale

Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
Controls. From a simple button station to loops and radar, the controls match how often the door opens.
Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.

Typical scopes of work

Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.
Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
Adding wind locks and a heavier geared motor to a wide insulated roller door on an exposed elevation.

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

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

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.

Questions from businesses in Skelmersdale

How much does an insulated roller shutter door cost in Skelmersdale?

Our guide price for an electric insulated roller door up to about 4 × 4 m is £3,195 to £7,495 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. We survey your Skelmersdale opening free of charge and then put a fixed price in writing.

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

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