Options for high-speed doors in Retford
- Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
- Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- 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 Retford?
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
Most installations in Retford can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
