High-speed doors in Highbury

In short

Is a busy door at your Highbury premises left open all shift because closing it slows everyone down? A high-speed door closes behind each forklift in seconds, keeping heat, dust and pests where they belong.

Town: Highbury
Postcode district: N5
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.

Jobs we can carry out

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

Powered door rules that apply in Highbury

Highbury 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

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.
