High-speed roller doors in Cambridge
We cover Cambridge and the CB1 postcode district as part of Cambridgeshire; you book a survey here exactly as you would anywhere else. We also cover Newmarket, Ely and Huntingdon, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Cambridge is roughly 30 miles south-east of Peterborough.
Each industrial door is specified for its own opening, so a site in Cambridge gets a door matched to its size, use and power supply rather than a single standard.
Installations at sites in Cambridge are planned to keep a loading bay out of use for as short a time as possible.

Planning and safety in Cambridge
Cambridge is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Safety: Light curtains and activation zones are commissioned on site so the door cannot close on people or vehicles in the opening.
- Maintenance: High cycle counts mean more frequent servicing than ordinary roller doors.

Questions about high-speed roller doors in Cambridge
Why use a high-speed door instead of a roller shutter?
Where a door opens many times an hour, a fast door is only open while traffic passes, which saves energy and keeps areas separate.
Can high-speed doors be used outside?
Yes, with wind-rated construction for the exposure of the opening.
Do I need permission for high-speed roller doors in Cambridge?
It depends on the property. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
