Options that matter on site

Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
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.
Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one 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.
Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
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 Tewkesbury

Tewkesbury 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.

Planning the work around your site

Sites in and around Tewkesbury vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

High-speed doors in Tewkesbury: your questions

Do you repair high-speed doors across Gloucestershire?

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

Which type of high-speed door suits our Tewkesbury 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 Tewkesbury 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.
