What we fit in Littlehampton

Breakaway bottom bars. Bottom bars that release on impact to limit damage to the door and the vehicle.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.
Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.

Jobs we can carry out

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.
Adding a high-speed fabric door inside an existing sectional door so the outer door can stay open during the shift.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Littlehampton 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Most installations in Littlehampton 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

Which type of high-speed door suits our Littlehampton 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.

Do you repair high-speed doors across West Sussex?

Yes. We repair fabric and spiral high-speed doors across West Sussex, including curtains, bottom bars, drives, inverters and safety devices, subject to parts availability. Repair visits are chargeable and quoted up front.

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