What to specify
- 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.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.
- Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
What this work can involve
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
- Replacing a corroded single-skin shutter on a heated workshop with an insulated roller door and radio remote control.
- Fitting an insulated roller door to a trade counter unit where sprinkler mains leave no room for sectional door tracks.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Kirkby?
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
For busy sites in Merseyside 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.
