Why wind-resistant rapid doors are becoming essential for industrial sites

HART DOOR System’s wind-resistant, high-speed, industrial rollingdoor, Speedor Storm, is ready for business be it a factory, warehouse, storage facility or any kind of plant operation.

With wind resistance available up to ‘wind class 5’, as defined by DIN EN 12424, in the closed position this high-speed door is ready for openings to a maximum 8m width or height subject to 48 sqm.

High-speed performance for harsh conditions

The ability to withstand substantial wind pressure means major entrances open/close automatically, helping businesses avoid a less-than-optimal working environment and the escape of heated air, important with winter on its way.

Speedor Storm helps industry by; 

• Aiding productivity - entering and leaving a building can be done more rapidly.
• Helping to create a better working environment through its high-speed operation which means there are no unnecessary open periods.
• By saving on the substantial cost of heating.

UK-engineered for demanding environments

Made in the UK at Hart’s Newcastle upon Tyne headquarters from where its teams of engineers are available throughout the UK for installation of Speedor Storms and subsequent servicing and maintenance thereafter. Speedor Storm’s strength and wind resistance comes from its multi-layer PVC and textile, both long-lasting and tear-resistant and its inbuilt horizontal curtain braces and no external cumbersome and noisy external wind bars. 

There is a colour choice as well as ‘a with or without vision panel ’ which combine to deliver a good appearance, operational effectiveness and a performance product.

Safety features are paramount, and these include a state-of-the-art safety light curtain, anti-fall protection, and sensors that activate the door. There is a range of operating methods, including hands-free, floor loops, radar, photo beam, radio operation, movement sensors, handheld or vehicle-mounted radio transmitters, or simple push-button and pull cords. 

The automatic operation can be set to include or exclude pedestrians as desired. If warning lights or klaxons are required, these can be incorporated in a complete door system and control panel, which are designed for any conceivable need, including integration into a building management system if necessary. This is delivered via its unique guide system in combination with other carefully designed features.
