What we fit in Lichfield

Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.
Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.

Jobs we can carry out

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.
Installing an insulated spiral door as the main external opening on a temperature-controlled distribution unit.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Lichfield 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

High-speed doors in Lichfield: your questions

Do high-speed doors in Lichfield need more servicing than standard doors?

Usually, yes, because they cycle so often. We base the service interval on the cycle counter and the manufacturer's guidance rather than a fixed annual visit, and can set up a planned maintenance schedule.

How much does a high-speed door cost in Lichfield?

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 Lichfield opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.

Which type of high-speed door suits our Lichfield 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.
