What we fit in Battersea
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
- Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
- 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 Battersea?
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
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.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Battersea?
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.
What safety features will a high-speed door at our Battersea 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.
Do high-speed doors in Battersea 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.
