High-speed doors in Tunbridge Wells

In short

High-speed fabric and spiral doors for factories, warehouses and food sites in Tunbridge Wells. We survey the opening, look at your traffic and set up activation and safety so the door opens when needed and closes straight after.

Survey: Free for new installations

What we fit in Tunbridge Wells

Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Tunbridge Wells 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

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

Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Tunbridge Wells?

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 much does a high-speed door cost in Tunbridge Wells?

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 Tunbridge Wells opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.

What safety features will a high-speed door at our Tunbridge Wells premises have?

Typically a full-height light curtain or photocells, limited closing forces, and on many fabric models a soft or breakaway bottom edge. The exact package comes from the risk assessment for your traffic and is tested before handover.
