Options that matter on site
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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.
- Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Powered door rules that apply in Colne
Colne 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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about high-speed doors
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Colne?
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.
Do you repair high-speed doors across Lancashire?
Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across Lancashire, 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 Colne 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.
