Options that matter on site
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
- Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
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 self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Berkhamsted?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
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.

Frequently asked questions

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.

Our guide price is £7,495 to £15,995 ex VAT for a high-speed fabric door and £17,995 to £34,995 for a spiral (rigid slat) door, supplied and fitted. We survey your Berkhamsted opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.
