The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Working hours
Most Farnborough businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Roof and height work
