The short version
Is a busy door at your Liverpool 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 Liverpool
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
- Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
- Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Liverpool?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
