The contract involved the installation of four Speedor Storms and four Hart roller shutters, three of them insulated.

Gordon Kipling, Hart’s North East’s sales manager, explains that the contract was for work at Nissan’s on-site plastics processing plant. He says: “Working in a 'live' environment has been challenging, with time pressured dates for certain parts of the project.

“In terms of specification we provided technical support throughout, changing door types to suit exact requirements. The contract has worked out extremely well. We are also installing three more insulated shutters on site for an American company.”

From its own office and manufacturing facility in Newcastle upon Tyne, Hart designs and manufactures its industrial door systems for a very wide range of sectors, often requiring bespoke solutions. The company is both customer-friendly and highly innovative.
