Options for insulated roller shutter doors in Ipswich

Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.

Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Ipswich are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Planning the work around your site

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Frequently asked questions

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

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

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

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 Ipswich opening free of charge and then put a fixed price in writing.
