What to specify
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
What this work can involve
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
- Installing an insulated spiral door as the main external opening on a temperature-controlled distribution unit.
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Annan?
In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.

High-speed doors in Annan: your questions
Which type of high-speed door suits our Annan 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.
What safety features will a high-speed door at our Annan premises have?
Typically a full-height light curtain or photocells, limited closing forces, and on many fabric models a soft or breakaway bottom edge. The exact package comes from the risk assessment for your traffic and is tested before handover.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Annan?
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.
