What Are High Speed Doors?
High-speed doors, also referred to as rapid roll doors or fast action doors, are designed to open and close very quickly, reducing the amount of time they remain open. This is important for several reasons, particularly safety and energy efficiency.
Where Are High Speed Doors Used?
High-speed doors are essential in a variety of commercial and industrial settings, including:
Refrigerated facilities
Refrigerated facilities must minimise the duration the door stays open to maintain the internal temperature. This not only ensures that refrigerated goods remain at the correct temperature but also conserves energy by reducing the workload on the refrigeration unit.
Factories handling chemicals
Factories handling dangerous chemicals benefit significantly from high-speed doors. If doors remain open for too long, harmful fumes can accumulate, creating a hazardous environment. High-speed doors mitigate this risk by ensuring that the doors open and close rapidly, thus preventing the build-up of fumes.
Warehouses
High-speed doors are essential in warehouses, enabling rapid access and improving efficiency. They help maintain temperature control, reduce contamination risks, and enhance safety by preventing accidents associated with slow-moving doors. This ensures a smoother and more secure workflow in busy warehouse environments.

High Speed Door FAQs
These types of doors are commonly used in workplaces such as factories and warehouses to help with energy efficiency and security. They also ensure that hazards are minimised, such as those that could occur from releasing chemicals into the atmosphere.
They are usually made from durable materials that are still lightweight, and come with a strengthened drivetrain. They are powered by industrial motors to ensure high speed in the opening and closing of the door.
In the UK, it is accepted that high speed doors are those which operate at over 500mm per second opening speed. The speed of the door will be outlined when you get it installed and may even be controllable.
We recommend a minimum of annual checks. However, depending on the usage and environment of your doors, you may need to service them more frequently. Our skilled and experienced team can advise you on the best schedule for your needs.
If your UK commercial facility has high traffic, temperature control, or security needs, a high-speed door can enhance efficiency, safety, and energy savings by improving traffic flow, preventing heat loss, and providing robust security features.
The cost of high-speed door maintenance and servicing depends on several factors, including the type of door and the amount of maintenance work that needs to be done. Our PPM packages start from as little as £250+VAT per annum. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.
