What we fit in Northampton
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
- Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.
- Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
- Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
- Compact coil. The curtain coils above the opening, leaving ceilings free for lights and sprinklers.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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.
- Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.
Powered door rules that apply in Northampton
Northampton 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Northamptonshire 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.

Insulated roller shutter doors in Northampton: your questions
Can you replace our old roller shutter in Northampton 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.
Is there enough headroom for an insulated roller door at our Northampton 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.
Do you repair insulated roller doors across Northamptonshire?
Yes. We repair damaged laths, motors, guides and seals on most makes of insulated roller door across Northamptonshire. Repair visits are chargeable, and planned servicing helps catch wear before a breakdown.
