Sectional overhead doors in Devon

In short

We can install sectional overhead doors in Devon and across the South West, on new industrial units and as replacements for tired roller shutters. Every job starts with a free survey and ends with a commissioned, tested door.

Area: Devon
Nation: England
Main town: Exeter
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Wicket doors. A pass door built into the panels saves opening the whole door for pedestrians; low-threshold options reduce trips.
Insulated panels. 40 mm PU-insulated steel panels as standard, with thicker thermal panels where heat loss matters.
Finishes. RAL colours to match cladding, with stucco or woodgrain embossing on the outer skin.
Track layouts. Standard, low headroom, high lift and vertical lift tracks, chosen after measuring your headroom.
Safety devices. Spring-break and cable-break protection, safety edges, photocells or light curtains, set up to BS EN 12453.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing a sectional door on low-headroom tracks in a steel-framed unit where the roof haunch sits close above the opening.
Supplying sectional doors in a RAL colour matched to the existing cladding as part of a unit refurbishment between tenants.
Renewing torsion springs and lift cables on a busy loading bay door, with higher-cycle springs where the usage justifies them.

Powered door rules that apply in Devon

Devon 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

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Sectional overhead doors in Devon: your questions

Can you replace a roller shutter with a sectional door at our Devon unit?

Usually, yes, provided there is enough headroom and side room for the tracks. Low-headroom track kits cover many older units. We check this on the survey and include strip-out and making good in the quote.

Which safety devices does a powered sectional door in Devon need?

That comes from the risk assessment for your site, but typically a safety edge or light curtain, spring-break and cable-break protection and limited closing forces tested to BS EN 12453. Busy pedestrian routes may call for more.

How much is a sectional overhead door in Devon?

Our guide price for an electric, 40 mm insulated sectional door up to about 4 × 4.5 m is £3,495 to £8,495 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. The fixed price for your opening in Devon is confirmed in writing after a free survey.
