What to specify

Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
Inverter drives. Soft start and stop protect the curtain and drive at high cycle rates.

What this work can involve

Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.
Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.

Powered door rules that apply in Stoke-on-Trent

Stoke-on-Trent is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Access, phasing and timing

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.

Your questions about high-speed doors

How much does a high-speed door cost in Stoke-on-Trent?

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 Stoke-on-Trent opening free of charge and then confirm a fixed price in writing.

Which type of high-speed door suits our Stoke-on-Trent 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.

What safety features will a high-speed door at our Stoke-on-Trent 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.
