Quick answer

For openings in Worcester that cycle hundreds of times a day, we fit high-speed doors with inverter drives, breakaway bottom bars and controls tuned to the traffic that uses them.

Town: Worcester
Postcode district: WR1
Area: Worcestershire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
Vision panels. See-through panels let drivers and pedestrians spot each other before the door opens.
Fabric doors. PVC-coated fabric roll-up doors for internal routes and sheltered external openings.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Spiral doors. Aluminium slats that never touch as they run, giving speed, insulation and security in one door.

What this work can involve

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

Powered door rules that apply in Worcester

Worcester 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to install a high-speed door in Worcester?

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.

Which type of high-speed door suits our Worcester 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 high-speed doors in Worcester 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.
