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

Insulated and cold-store versions are available for temperature-controlled areas. They are designed for very high numbers of cycles a day, which a standard roller shutter is not.

Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening. The fabric curtain can be pushed out of its guides by an impact and re-inserted automatically on many models, reducing damage.

Specification options

  • High daily cycle rating
  • Self-repairing curtain on many models
  • Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
  • Light curtain safety protection
  • Pairs with a roller shutter for security
  • Radar, loop, pull-cord and push-button activation

Rules in England

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

High-speed doors: common questions

Do you cover Hitchin?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hitchin. We also cover nearby Letchworth Garden City, Stevenage and Luton.

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.

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.

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.

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.
