Options for high-speed doors in Hayes
- Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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 self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Hayes 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.

Your questions about high-speed doors
How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Hayes?
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.
Do high-speed doors in Hayes 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.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Hayes?
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.
