Finding A Firm To Supply Roll Up Steel Doors

By Mary Roberts


When you own your own home or business premises you will need it to be secure. The property will need to be well protected against storms, fire damage and intruders and you may choose to fit some steel shutters. If you are searching for a company to supply roll up steel doors there are a few place to order from and some care is needed before you make a purchase.

Roll up doors are made from steel and they can be fitted on the outside of your windows and doors to provide protection. Any size can be ordered and there are also many color options to choose from. There is also the option to have customized rollers made and this is useful if you need an odd size or something out of the ordinary.

The way the door operates will vary and you are given a couple of options and should choose a suitable one for your needs. Manual shutters are physically pulled down to close them and pushed up to be opened. Shutters with electric motors are available but they will be more expensive and some are remotely operated which is handy for garage doors.

There are also shutters that are fire retardant which are manufactured using special treatments so that they withstand high temperatures. Some people will need a storm rated door if they live somewhere that experiences severe weather. All of the products can be locked by using padlocks or bolts and there is the option to add a more secure locking system if it is required.

There are many companies that can supply these products and it is a good idea to do a little shopping around to get the best deal. You can find the contact numbers for firms in the phone book and some companies will advertise in the neighborhood. It is also worth looking in the local press or in specialist security or construction magazines where a lot of companies are advertised.

Browsing the web can also produce good results when looking for a supplier and many firms are trading online. They will list their products on the net with photographs, descriptions and prices. Most web pages will have a page with comments and feedback from their customers and you are able call or email them if you need to discuss your requirements before ordering.

After selecting a firm you will need to place an order for either a stock shutter or submit the measurements for a custom order. If you are having a door manufactured then you may have to wait a short while before it is delivered. Standard products are normally shipped on a next day service and the company can install your shutter for a fee.

It is important that you keep your roll up doors well maintained so that they operate well and last longer. They will need to be cleaned properly on a regular basis and the runners; hinges and motors will need to be lubricated. Your product will be guaranteed for a period of time and it is important to keep your purchase receipt in case you need repairs doing under these guarantees.
