What to specify
- Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
- Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
- Installing an insulated spiral door as the main external opening on a temperature-controlled distribution unit.
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Dunstable are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
