Options for high-speed doors in Hanworth

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.
Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.

What this work can involve

Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Hanworth 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.

How the work is organised

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

High-speed doors in Hanworth: your questions

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

How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Hanworth?

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.
