Fitting industrial roller shutter doors in Belfast
Belfast is part of our County Antrim coverage, and addresses in the city's postcode districts are covered in the same way as the rest of County Antrim. We also cover Newtownabbey, Lisburn and Newtownards, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
For warehouses, depots and workshops in and around Belfast, the door is sized to the opening, the wind on that elevation and the number of cycles a day.
Each industrial door is specified for its own opening, so a site in Belfast gets a door matched to its size, use and power supply rather than a single standard.
