Frequently asked questions
Should I choose insulated or single-skin?
Insulated if the building is heated or you get condensation; single-skin steel for unheated stores, farms and compounds.
How often should an industrial door be serviced?
Most busy doors are serviced every six months, quieter doors annually, so the safety devices and motor are checked regularly.
Do I need permission for industrial roller shutter doors in Hartlepool?
Possibly. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Hartlepool?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Hartlepool are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
