Industrial Roller Shutter Doors in Falmouth for Docks and Depots

Falmouth is a working port. Ship repair yards, boat builders, marine engineers and busy depots around Penryn all have one thing in common. They need wide, tall doors that open for boats, lorries and cranes, then lock up tight at night. That is exactly the job of industrial roller shutter doors in Falmouth from our team. At Industrial Roller Shutter Doors, we produce the shutter in-house, our engineers put it up on site, and the same team keeps it running with repairs and servicing. Plus, we cover the whole UK, so businesses in Truro, Newquay, Southampton or Glasgow get the same service.

How Big Can an Industrial Shutter Go?

This is the first question most dockside firms ask. After all, a door that is too small for your biggest boat or truck is useless. Our steel roller shutters come in these standard sizes:

So, a tall boat shed or a double lorry bay is not a problem. Also, if your opening is an odd shape, we make the shutter to your exact size.

Pick the Right Slat for Your Industrial Roller Shutter

The slat is the strip of metal that makes up the curtain. For this reason, the slat you pick changes how strong, warm or bright your building feels. Each type does a different job:

Flat slats (75–100mm high): a clean, smooth face for depots and shopfronts.
Curved slats (75–100mm high): the classic shutter look, strong and simple.
Insulated slats (1.2–1.5mm thick, 100–120mm wide): keep heated workshops warm.
Perforated slats (1–1.5mm thick): let light and air pass while the shutter stays down.
Boxed laths (1.5–2mm thick, 100–130mm wide): the toughest option for high-risk sites.
Polycarbonate slats (1–1.5mm thick): see-through, so you can check inside without opening up.

On top of that, you can pick a RAL powder coat colour, a polyester coating for rust protection, or even a wood-effect or metallic finish. That way, the door matches your company colours or the look of the street.

Roller Shutter Doors in Falmouth: Chain Drive or Direct Drive?

Once you know the size, the next choice is how the door lifts. Of course, both options are strong. Even so, they suit different sites, so here is a simple guide.

Chain Drive Industrial Door

Direct Drive Industrial Door

In short, choose chain drive for strong, simple cover. However, if you heat the space or work next to neighbours, the 100mm insulated direct drive is worth the extra.

3 Industrial Door Myths That Cost You Money

Some old ideas lead owners to buy the wrong door. Sadly, they find out only after the first winter. Here are three we hear a lot.

Myth 1: “Any shutter fits any opening.”

Fact: A loose fit lets in wind and gives thieves a gap. Instead, we build every shutter to your measurements, for any width and height.

Myth 2: “Big shutters have to be opened by hand.”

Fact: Not at all. Electric shutters run by remote or a wall switch. In fact, manual shutters only make sense for small, quiet sites without power.

Myth 3: “Steel always rusts near the sea.”

Fact: A polyester coating protects steel from rust and harsh weather. Besides that, regular servicing keeps the guides and moving parts clean.
