High-speed doors in Reading: the essentials
High-speed doors open and close much faster than roller shutters, so the opening spends less time open. The fabric curtain can be pushed out of its guides by an impact and re-inserted automatically on many models, reducing damage.
Vision strips in the curtain let drivers and pedestrians see what is on the other side. Food, pharmaceutical and cold-store sites use them to keep zones separate.
Specification options
- Light curtain safety protection
- Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
- Self-repairing curtain on many models
- Radar, loop, pull-cord and push-button activation
- Internal, external and cold-store versions
- Pairs with a roller shutter for security

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Reading?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair high-speed doors in Reading and the RG1 district, as part of our coverage across Berkshire.
How fast do they open?
High-speed doors open in a few seconds, much faster than a roller shutter. The exact speed depends on the model and size.
What happens if a forklift hits the curtain?
On many models the curtain pops out of its guides and re-feeds itself on the next cycle, which avoids the damage a steel shutter would suffer.
Do high-speed doors save energy?
They reduce the time an opening stands open, which cuts heat loss and draughts on busy doors.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
