What to specify
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- 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.
- 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.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- 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 Herefordshire 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
Sites in and around Herefordshire vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Herefordshire?
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 you repair high-speed doors across the West Midlands?
Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across the West Midlands, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.
Do high-speed doors in Herefordshire 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.
