High Speed Doors Kent

Providing High Speed Doors around Kent, London, Sussex and Surrey.  

You can view our very own high speed doors.  Please call to make an appointment.

High Speed Industrial Doors are designed for excessive use. They dramatically reduce draughts and temperature loss; at the same time optimising traffic flow.  

Traditional Canvas Speed Door

If you prefer a traditional canvas High Speed Industrial Door, we can provide a quotation. However, we find the demand for these types of fast action doors has reduced.  They are costly to install and repair, and parts come from overseas.   As a result, it often means a slow turnaround.

Versus The Eco-Strip Door

However, we would highly recommend our very own Fast Action Doors, the Eco-Strip High Speed Rolling Door

Designed and manufactured here at our Kent premises.  It combines a PVC Strip curtain with High Speed Activation.

Safety

As machines, Speed Doors come under the Machinery Directive. As a result, the law requires that you service speed doors at least once a year.  Click here for more information on your legal obligations, or contact us for further advice instead.

SAFETY - Fast Action Doors - Important to Note!  

♦ Avoid Unwanted Damage - Ensure your Eco-Strip Doors or other Fast Action Doors are  ALWAYS raised during gale conditions.  

♦ DO NOT attempt to pass under a speed door once it has started lowering.  Although Automatic Speed Doors have safety features, they can still take up to 0.68 of a second to respond to an obstruction.   We have had some customers attempt to drive or walk through whilst it is closing. 

The photo beams stop the door from operating when a person is standing within the beam area. The safety edge will send the door back up; however, this only occurs once it has made contact with an obstruction.

Unless your speed door is set to pick up walking personnel, they MUST use other entrance doors.  In this instance, we also strongly advise erecting signage to that effect.

A motion sensor detects walking personnel.  Please contact us for further information.

♦ NEVER reverse through the opening.  Ensure you have a full view of the entire door before attempting to pass through.

PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS! 

If you are travelling through the opening while the door is closing, you can cause damage to the door, your vehicle, or worse, to yourself.

If this type of incident could occur at your premises, consider installing traffic lights or other forms of alarms that alert personnel when it is safe to pass through.
