Options for high-speed doors in Newtownabbey

Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.

What this work can involve

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.

Your questions about high-speed doors

Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Newtownabbey?

Often, yes. A high-speed door can sit inside or outside an existing shutter or sectional door, with the conventional door closed at night. We check the space and fixings on survey.

Which type of high-speed door suits our Newtownabbey site?

Fabric doors suit most internal openings and many sheltered external ones. Spiral doors suit exposed external openings and sites that need insulation and security from the same door. We recommend a type after looking at traffic, exposure and temperature on the survey.

Do you repair high-speed doors across County Antrim?

Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across County Antrim, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.
