What to specify

Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
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. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.

Jobs we can carry out

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
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.

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

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.

How the work is organised

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.

Frequently asked questions

Which type of high-speed door suits our Bexleyheath site?
