Quick answer
Is a busy door at your Redhill premises left open all shift because closing it slows everyone down? A high-speed door closes behind each forklift in seconds, keeping heat, dust and pests where they belong.

Options that matter on site
- Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
- Self-repairing curtains. Many fabric doors re-feed into the guides after an impact on the next cycle.
- Smart activation. The door opens only for the traffic you choose, from forklifts on loops to pedestrians on buttons.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
- Installing an insulated spiral door as the main external opening on a temperature-controlled distribution unit.
- Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Redhill?
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.
Planning the work around your site
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about high-speed doors
Do you repair high-speed doors across Surrey?
Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across Surrey, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.
Do high-speed doors in Redhill 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 long does it take to install a high-speed door in Redhill?
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.
