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

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. Light curtains in the frame stop the curtain closing if anything is in the opening.

Features to choose from

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

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.

High-speed doors: common questions

Do you cover South Shields?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair high-speed doors in South Shields and the NE33 district, as part of our coverage across Tyne and Wear.

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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
