How high-speed doors work, and what to ask for

High-speed doors are often fitted inside an insulated roller shutter, which provides security out of hours. Radar, induction loops and pull cords open the door automatically as traffic approaches.

The fabric curtain can be pushed out of its guides by an impact and re-inserted automatically on many models, reducing damage. Regular servicing keeps the sensors and safety devices working correctly on such a busy door.

What's included

  • Internal, external and cold-store versions
  • Radar, loop, pull-cord and push-button activation
  • Vision strips for safe traffic flow
  • Light curtain safety protection
  • Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
  • Self-repairing curtain on many models

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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

High-speed doors: common questions

Do you cover Darlington?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Darlington. We also cover nearby Newton Aycliffe, Stockton-on-Tees and Thornaby-on-Tees.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
