Fast-opening door
31 May 2016
Armstrong World Industries (AWI) manufactures commercial ceiling system solutions. Its manufacturing facility in Stafford now operates from seven units, each being upgraded to feature EFAFLEX’s ‘SST’ door.

Simon Pulford, plant manager, says: "This has been a phased expansion and the classic high-speed spiral design door has been an asset to our business. Our warehouse doors are in constant use as a busy exporter of products abroad. The EFAFLEX doors have helped us secure our premises as well as ensuring the safety of our operatives. We use a fork lift truck mounted transmitter which allows our drivers to activate the door opening. This is flexible and can be set to a 10 second to 5 minute delay."
The SST has a door opening speeds of up to 4m/sec and is backed with by a service and maintenance programme.
