In short
Is a busy door at your March premises left open all shift because closing it slows everyone down? A high-speed door closes behind each forklift in seconds, keeping heat, dust and pests where they belong.

Options for high-speed doors in March
- 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.
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
- Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
Powered door rules that apply in March
March is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions
Do high-speed doors in March need more servicing than standard doors?
Usually, yes, because they cycle so often. We base the service interval on the cycle counter and the manufacturer's guidance rather than a fixed annual visit, and can set up a planned maintenance schedule.
Do you repair high-speed doors across Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across Cambridgeshire, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in March?
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.
