Options for high-speed doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme

Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
Light curtains. Sensors along the side frames watch the whole opening and keep the door open while it is occupied.
Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
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.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Newcastle-under-Lyme?

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.

Access, phasing and timing

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
