What to check in Oxford before ordering
In Oxford, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Power supply: Industrial motors may need a 3-phase supply or a dedicated circuit; we confirm what is on site at survey.
- Workplace safety: Powered doors in workplaces must be safe to use and kept maintained; that includes working safety edges or photocells and regular servicing.
- Lifting and access: Large doors are installed with suitable access equipment and a site-specific method statement.

Industrial roller shutter doors in Oxford: 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.
Can you replace a door in a working warehouse?
Yes. We plan the work to keep the bay out of action for as short a time as possible, often a single day for a like-for-like door.
Is the survey free in Oxford?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do I need permission for industrial roller shutter doors in Oxford?
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. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
