Quick answer
Is a busy door at your Wigston premises left open all shift because closing it slows everyone down? A high-speed door closes behind each forklift in seconds, keeping heat, dust and pests where they belong.

What we fit in Wigston
- Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
Jobs we can carry out
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
- 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 Wigston 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.
Access, phasing and timing
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
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Wigston?
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 Wigston?
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 Wigston opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.
Which type of high-speed door suits our Wigston site?
Fabric doors suit most internal openings and many sheltered external ones. Spiral doors suit exposed external openings and sites that need insulation and security from the same door. We recommend a type after looking at traffic, exposure and temperature on the survey.
