How high-speed doors work, and what to ask for
The fabric curtain can be pushed out of its guides by an impact and re-inserted automatically on many models, reducing damage. They are designed for very high numbers of cycles a day, which a standard roller shutter is not. High-speed doors are often fitted inside an insulated roller shutter, which provides security out of hours.
Vision strips in the curtain let drivers and pedestrians see what is on the other side. Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening.
Options we can specify
- Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
- Vision strips for safe traffic flow
- Self-repairing curtain on many models
- Internal, external and cold-store versions
- Pairs with a roller shutter for security
- High daily cycle rating

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.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Questions about high-speed doors in County Durham
Do high-speed doors save energy?
They reduce the time an opening stands open, which cuts heat loss and draughts on busy doors.
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.
Is a high-speed door secure?
Not on its own. The fabric curtain is for traffic and environmental control, so it is often paired with a roller shutter that closes out of hours.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
