From enquiry to handover in Rushden
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.
Select
The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.
Install
The unit is mounted and connected to power, water or refrigerant. We keep work areas in Rushden screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
What to think about in Rushden
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Rushden often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
