What we fit in Rugeley

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.
Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.

What this work can involve

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Rugeley 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.

Your questions about high-speed doors

Do high-speed doors in Rugeley 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.

What safety features will a high-speed door at our Rugeley 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.

Which type of high-speed door suits our Rugeley 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.
