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

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

Vision strips in the curtain let drivers and pedestrians see what is on the other side. High-speed doors are often fitted inside an insulated roller shutter, which provides security out of hours.

Features to choose from

  • Pairs with a roller shutter for security
  • Self-repairing curtain on many models
  • Light curtain safety protection
  • Vision strips for safe traffic flow
  • High daily cycle rating
  • Internal, external and cold-store versions

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.

Before you book in Houghton-le-Spring

Do you cover Houghton-le-Spring?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair high-speed doors in Houghton-le-Spring and the DH4 district, as part of our coverage across 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.

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.

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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

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.
