What to specify

Breakaway bottom bars. If a truck catches the door, the bottom bar breaks away rather than bending the frame.
Vision panels. Clear vision strips or windows so drivers can see through the closed door.
Self-repairing curtains. After a knock, many curtains reset themselves automatically instead of waiting for an engineer.
Inverter drives. A frequency inverter accelerates and brakes the curtain smoothly, cutting wear on every cycle.
Smart activation. Radar, loops, pull cords or interlocks set to the traffic using the door.

Typical scopes of work

Cutting induction loops on both sides of a high-speed door so forklifts trigger it but pedestrians do not.
Replacing a worn fabric curtain, bottom bar and drive belt on a door logging thousands of cycles a week.
Interlocking two high-speed doors as an airlock between a clean production area and the general warehouse.
