What types of sectional industrial doors are safe for workers?
Those which are equipped with a range of protective solutions, such as spring or rope break protection, and photocell sensors to eliminate the risk of crushing or pinching. A desirable feature is an edge strip which makes the door automatically stop and then go up if the door comes up against any obstruction. Solutions of this type ensure complete safety of staff.
Due to factors related to my company's line of business, we need a glazed door. What door should we pick?
Check if the door manufacturer offers oval-shaped or rectangular windows mounted in sectional steel doors. As for aluminium doors, glazed sections can occupy most of the door's surface, making up a panorama-type door. Such solutions are successfully used e.g. in car showrooms. It is a perfect option for buildings which interior should be well displayed, yet at the same time adequately protected and visually appealing.
I have a car wash and an automotive workshop. What door type would be suitable for me?
You should pick a solution offered by a professional manufacturer and designed for operation in non-standard conditions, e.g. in high humidity working environments. Hinges, links, screws and rollers used in such doors are made of stainless steel. The specific nature of the door's application also requires a motor-reducer assembly and control unit with higher levels of humidity protection.
If the door is to be opened frequently, it should be provided with electric drive mechanisms offering ongoing operation functionality.
That depends on the Customer's needs and decisions, however
a well-equipped door should have the following:
This is a possibility which, however, we do not recommend. A better solution is for the manufacturer to provide a multi-channel remote control which will make it possible to operate a number of doors using just one remote device.
Check the manufacturer's guarantee period which should, preferably, be longer than a year. Durability is also ensured by appropriate materials used in the manufacturing process. The best materials for industrial doors are galvanized steel or aluminium sections.
