High-speed doors are faster versions of conventional door systems such as roller doors, sectional door, PVC fabric door, or roller shutter. In order to operate at speed, the design of the high-speed door is critical to ensure longevity of parts, most efficient energy consumption, and reliability in high usage. The doors must open quickly and close slowly. They are typically designed to integrate with the traffic movements within an organisation. Hence, design and selection of the door and ancillary activation systems must suit traffic characteristics, and avoid costly collisions.

Manufacturers may install other features to serve this purpose. For example, Movidor has an integrated traffic warning system that alerts the driver, via flashing LED lights, when a door is about to close. However, some versions use a spiral guiding system, which keeps the door blade apart through a whole operating cycle. Additionally, a counterbalance system sometimes forms part of the door’s construction for emergency opening. High-speed roller doors are produced in a maintenance-free modular construction.High performance doors are automatic doors used for fast access between internal and external areas of buildings.

Prime high-performance doors by Gandhi Automations are designed and factory-made with German collaboration using state-of-the-art and resourceful engineering technology, for frequent use in high traffic areas with opening speeds up to 2.5 m/s. The high opening speed reduces time taken in movement of material, thus hastening the logistics process. Our team of skilled engineers visits site and recommend the most suitable rapid door to client. Rapid doors are manufactured and installed keeping in mind international standards.

Strong wind resistance
pvc fabric is reinforced with metallic bars put into the horizontal compartments of the doors, to contrast wind force, above all in the case of doors with big dimensions. These reinforcements function also as protection for workers and goods in case of breaking due to wrong or accidental maneuverings.

Manufacturing industries like medical instrument, electronics and computer manufacturer, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and some military applications are few of the examples having strict requirements for maintaining dust-free environment. The speed of the vertical folding pvc fabric and the opening/closing automatism allow a continuous and quick use of the passage, avoiding expensive thermal exchanges between inside and outside.

Use of high-speed doors
By ensuring doors are kept closed for the maximum time, with good perimeter sealing when closed, energy and temperature losses through doorways can be reduced, optimum operating rhythms can be achieved, and cross contamination risks can be minimised. However, in a facility with significant traffic movements, maintaining closed doors without disruption to your operations can be challenging.

A wide range of prime high-speed doors are available for various operations, including areas with special requirements for temperature control, hygiene, storage and handling of frozen foods, Atex rapid doors are need in explosion proof areas, deep freezer automatic roll up door are need in cold storages, warehousing, loading bays and on conveyor systems. prime reset features a special advanced self-repairing system. The doors can play an important role in meeting all the energy and hygiene control objectives of an organisation, without compromising productivity. They are used in applications like warehouse Load-in/Load-Out doors, food production doorways, cool rooms and freezers, logistics & transport, grain, milling industries, car washes and pharmaceutical.

Selection criteria
According to the Door and Access Systems Manufacturing Association (DASMA), high-performance high-speed doors must satisfy the following requirements:
• Are non-residential powered doors.
• Have rolling, folding, sliding, and swinging characteristics.
• Are either high cycle (at minimum 100 cycles per day), or high speed (at minimum 508mm per second).

They have two out of the three below-mentioned attributes:
• Made-to-order for exact size and custom features.
• Designed to withstand equipment impact.
• Designed to sustain heavy usage with minimal maintenance.
• Make sure your manufacturer satisfies the above criteria before you buy your high-speed doors.

Gandhi Automations offer a variety of high-speed doors across a range of industries. If you are looking for quality high-speed doors, Gandhi Automations is the best solution provider.
