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

Regular servicing keeps the sensors and safety devices working correctly on such a busy door. The fabric curtain can be pushed out of its guides by an impact and re-inserted automatically on many models, reducing damage. High-speed doors are often fitted inside an insulated roller shutter, which provides security out of hours.

Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening. Radar, induction loops and pull cords open the door automatically as traffic approaches.

Options we can specify

  • Pairs with a roller shutter for security
  • Light curtain safety protection
  • Internal, external and cold-store versions
  • Self-repairing curtain on many models
  • Fast-acting PVC fabric curtain
  • 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.

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.

Questions about high-speed doors in Tyne and Wear

Do high-speed doors save energy?

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

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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

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.
