Industrial Doors FAQs
What types of industrial doors and industrial roller shutter doors do you supply and install?
We supply and install a range of industrial doors, including roller shutter doors, formed from interlinked horizontal slats, sectional overhead doors, high-speed doors, fire shutters and security shutters. We’ll recommend the right system based on the building type, opening size, security needs and how the space is used day to day. Where specification and site conditions allow, we can manufacture custom roller shutters in under two weeks.
Where are industrial doors typically used?
Industrial doors are commonly used on warehouses, factories, distribution units, workshops, loading bays, storefronts, loading docks, banks, retail units and commercial buildings. They are designed to provide secure access while standing up to regular use in busy working environments. Transparent polycarbonate shutters are used where high visibility and impact resistance are important. By contrast, residential shutters are generally installed on homes for privacy and light control.
Can industrial doors be automated?
Yes, many industrial doors can be automated to improve ease of use, speed up operations and reduce manual handling. Automation can be particularly useful on busy commercial sites where doors are opened and closed frequently throughout the day.
How do I choose the right industrial doors for my building and consider energy efficiency?
The best industrial doors for your building will depend on the level of security required, the available space, insulation needs, traffic flow and how often the door will be used. We carry out a site assessment, can measure the opening, and recommend a solution that works for both performance and practicality so the system fits the available clearance and box space correctly. Choosing the right option early helps avoid waiting longer for revisions or replacement parts later.
Do industrial doors and insulated roller shutter doors need servicing?
Yes, industrial doors should be serviced regularly to keep them safe, compliant and operating reliably, so customers know their ongoing service needs are covered. Routine maintenance helps prevent costly breakdowns, reduces wear on moving parts, extends the lifespan of roller shutter doors and ensures the door system continues to perform as expected to the highest standards. This includes cleaning tracks and lubricating parts.
