What to know about high-speed doors in Longton

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.

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.

Specification options

  • Light curtain safety protection
  • Radar, loop, pull-cord and push-button activation
  • High daily cycle rating
  • Vision strips for safe traffic flow
  • Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
  • 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.

  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 Longton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair high-speed doors in Longton and the ST3 district, as part of our coverage across Staffordshire.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

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.
