Quick answer

Town: Brentwood
Postcode district: CM14
Area: Essex
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.

What this work can involve

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.
Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Brentwood?

In England, 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

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

High-speed doors in Brentwood: your questions

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

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 Brentwood 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 Essex?

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