What we fit in Erith
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Typical scopes of work
- Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
- Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
Powered door rules that apply in Erith
Erith 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

Your questions about high-speed doors
What safety features will a high-speed door at our Erith 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.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Erith?
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.
How much does a high-speed door cost in Erith?
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 Erith opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.
