Options for high-speed doors in Putney
- Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- 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.
What this work can involve
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
- 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.
Powered door rules that apply in Putney
Putney 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Frequently asked questions
Which type of high-speed door suits our Putney 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.
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Putney?
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 long does it take to install a high-speed door in Putney?
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.
