In short

Tight headroom, cluttered ceiling, still need a warm door? For units in Oxford (OX1), we can install insulated roller doors that coil neatly above the opening and leave the roof space completely clear.

Town: Oxford
Postcode district: OX1
Area: Oxfordshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

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.
Safety devices. Safety edges, photocells and anti-fall devices fitted as the risk assessment requires.
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.

Typical scopes of work

Installing an insulated roller door with induction loop activation on a busy internal forklift route.
Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.
Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.

Powered door rules that apply in Oxford

Oxford 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.

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 Oxford: your questions

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

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