What we fit in Gloucestershire
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
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.
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
Powered door rules that apply in Gloucestershire
Gloucestershire 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in the South West the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Questions from businesses in Gloucestershire
How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Gloucestershire?
A typical fabric door is fitted and commissioned in a day once it arrives. Spiral doors, interlocks and floor loops add time. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and we fit around your operations.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Gloucestershire?
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.
Do you repair high-speed doors across the South West?
Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across the South West, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.
