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

Frequently asked questions
What happens if a forklift hits it?
Many fabric doors have a self-repairing curtain that comes out of the guides on impact and re-feeds on the next cycle.
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 Gravesend?
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.
Is the survey free in Gravesend?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
