Options for high-speed doors in Weston-super-Mare

Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.
Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.

Typical scopes of work

Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Weston-super-Mare 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

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Questions from businesses in Weston-super-Mare

How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Weston-super-Mare?

A typical fabric door is fitted and commissioned in a day once it arrives. Spiral doors, interlocks and floor loops add time. The manufacturer's lead time is confirmed with your quote, and we fit around your operations.

What safety features will a high-speed door at our Weston-super-Mare premises have?

Typically a full-height light curtain or photocells, limited closing forces, and on many fabric models a soft or breakaway bottom edge. The exact package comes from the risk assessment for your traffic and is tested before handover.
