Key Considerations in High-Speed Door Installation
We know high-speed doors can boost your business. Our team helps you pick the perfect door for your needs.
Assessing Facility Needs
First, we look at what your building needs. This step helps us pick the right doors and parts. We check how much the doors will be used. Busy areas need stronger parts, usually Grade 1.
We also look at things like how wet it gets when recommending industrial doors. These facts help us choose finishes that won’t rust.
Our team looks for signs that your current doors need fixing. Missing seals or big gaps can make your doors waste energy. We do this check twice a year to keep your doors working well.
Our experts know what to look for in fast door setups. We use this know-how to make sure your new doors fit your needs just right.
Choosing the Right Door Type
Choosing the right fast-opening door is vital for your space. Many factors come into play when finding the best match. These include the door’s size, opening speed, and materials. Common materials are PVC, steel, and aluminum.
Each has its own perks for different uses.
We pair doors with their intended spots. Loading docks need strong doors that can take heavy use. Clean rooms need doors that block dust and germs. Warehouses often need large doors that open quickly to save time.
We help you find the ideal door for your space and needs.
The right door type can boost your efficiency and safety.
