What we fit in Gloucester
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
Jobs we can carry out
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Gloucester 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.
Planning the work around your site
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.

Questions from businesses in Gloucester
Do high-speed doors in Gloucester 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.
Which type of high-speed door suits our Gloucester 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.
How much does a high-speed door cost in Gloucester?
Our guide price is £7,495 to £15,995 ex VAT for a high-speed fabric door and £17,995 to £34,995 for a spiral (rigid slat) door, supplied and fitted. We survey your Gloucester opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.
