Industrial roller shutter doors in Falkirk: 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 you cover Falkirk?
Yes. Book a survey for any address in Falkirk in the usual way; it is covered as part of Stirling & Falkirk.
Do I need permission for industrial roller shutter doors in Falkirk?
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 council first.
