Frequently asked questions
How much does an industrial roller door cost?
A typical 4 × 4.5 m electric steel door is around £3,295–£5,995 plus VAT, supplied and fitted. Insulated doors, larger openings and high-duty motors cost more.
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.
Do I need permission for industrial roller shutter doors in Gillingham?
It depends on the property. 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. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
