Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
Is the survey free in Galashiels?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Galashiels are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for high-speed roller doors in Galashiels?
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 council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
