High-speed doors in Dorset: the essentials
Vision strips in the curtain let drivers and pedestrians see what is on the other side. 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.
Food, pharmaceutical and cold-store sites use them to keep zones separate. Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening.
Specification options
- Light curtain safety protection
- Radar, loop, pull-cord and push-button activation
- Internal, external and cold-store versions
- High daily cycle rating
- Self-repairing curtain on many models
- 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.
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.

High-speed doors: common questions
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
