What we fit in Leicester
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
What this work can involve
- Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
- Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
- 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 Leicester 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.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
