Options for high-speed doors in Gorseinon
- Light curtains. Full-height safety light curtains in the frame stop the door closing on anything.
- Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
- Spiral doors. Rigid insulated slats on a spiral for fast, secure, wind-resistant external doors.
- Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
- Fabric doors. Lightweight roll-up curtains that suit most internal doorways and many protected external ones.
Jobs we can carry out
- Fitting a self-repairing fabric door between production and dispatch where a conventional shutter stands open all shift.
- Fitting a wind-resistant high-speed fabric door to a sheltered external yard opening, with traffic lights for drivers.
- 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 Gorseinon?
In Wales, 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
Most installations in Gorseinon can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
Can you fit a high-speed door alongside our existing door in Gorseinon?
Often, yes. A high-speed door can sit inside or outside an existing shutter or sectional door, with the conventional door closed at night. We check the space and fixings on survey.
How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Gorseinon?
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.
Do high-speed doors in Gorseinon 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.
