High-speed doors in Sunderland: the essentials

Radar, induction loops and pull cords open the door automatically as traffic approaches. They are designed for very high numbers of cycles a day, which a standard roller shutter is not.

Food, pharmaceutical and cold-store sites use them to keep zones separate. Vision strips in the curtain let drivers and pedestrians see what is on the other side.

What's included

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

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.

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Questions about high-speed doors in Sunderland

Do you cover Sunderland?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair high-speed doors in Sunderland and the SR1 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.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
