What to know about high-speed doors in Stowmarket

Regular servicing keeps the sensors and safety devices working correctly on such a busy door. Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening.

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

Features to choose from

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

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. 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.

Questions about high-speed doors in Stowmarket

Do you cover Stowmarket?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Stowmarket. We also cover nearby Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury and Thetford.

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.

Do high-speed doors save energy?

They reduce the time an opening stands open, which cuts heat loss and draughts on busy doors.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
