Options for high-speed doors in Herne Bay
- 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.
- Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
- Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
- Setting up radar with cross-traffic suppression so a door on a busy aisle opens only for approaching traffic.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Herne Bay 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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Kent the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
