Industrial Dock Doors

Industrial Dock Doors increase the efficiency and security of your operations with the right door. Performance Dock and Door helps you determine the right door for the job and recommends the door type based on aesthetics, energy requirements, security and noise appropriate to the facility.

Improve the flow of motorized and pedestrian traffic, help control temperatures, and substantially lower energy costs. Every door is custom-built to handle the challenges of opening and closing hundreds of times a day. In fact, many doors have over five million cycles, and they’re still performing, day after day, year after year, cycle after cycle.

Each door addresses a specific operational and environmental challenge and is engineered for maximum safety, productivity, and efficiency

Benefits

  • Increase Productivity: Fast opening and closing speeds increase productivity since cars, fork trucks, pallet jacks and pedestrians don’t waste time waiting for the doors to open.
  • Can Take a Hit: Self-repairing or “Break-Away” models are durable and built for high-cycle environments. In fact, most fabric roll doors are engineered to withstand the impact of a forklift or car and can be repaired without tools in seconds.
  • Control Environment and Lower Energy Costs: The fast opening and closing speeds minimize the air exchange between areas. Less air infiltration leads to lower heating and cooling costs, which directly impacts the bottom line.
  • Lower Maintenance: High-performance doors are engineered for high-traffic environments-critical for 24/7 operations. They require minimal maintenance, minimizing the downtime associated with conventional doors.
  • Enhance Security: Fast opening and closing speeds help control access and enhance security between areas.
  • A State-of-the-art Controller, System 3®, provides smooth starts and stops and easy, flexible programming.

Even a few minutes of unplanned downtime can have serious consequences, from hazardous operations to millions of dollars in lost business. Pharmaceutical doors are engineered for high-traffic, high-cycle environments and require only minimal scheduled maintenance.

Pharmaceutical doors are engineered specifically for pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and research facilities–where quick access, environmental control, and reliability are critical.

Benefits

  • Meet cGMP Guidelines: Pharmaceutical doors are designed to comply with cGMP guidelines. For compliance, they are tight sealing, easy to clean and low in maintenance.
  • Engineered for Controlled Environments: Pharma-Doors™ are engineered to increase productivity while addressing cGMP, controlled particulate count, security, interlocks and emergency egress.
  • Light Curtain: Some rolling doors feature a light curtain that covers the door opening up to 98 inches to meet OSHA requirements.
  • Manual Release: The door reverses without physical contact providing unparalleled personnel and equipment safety. If power is lost, simply pull the flush manual release handle to open the door.
  • Turnkey Door Solutions: Performance Dock & Door works closely with project engineers, design/build firms and architects to identify the best door system for each application
  • Integrated Electronics Customized to Application: Door controller products, from our trusted manufacturers, offer state-of-the-art motion control technology to meet the unique demands of pharmaceutical facilities. The variable frequency drive enables soft starts and stops, reducing wear on the motor, gearbox and brake. It also permits speed adjustments in either direction to better match productivity and environmental requirements. The system accommodates air locks, activation, traffic lights and other options without requiring additional electrical components and custom programming.

Commercial sectional doors are appropriate when energy efficiency is a priority, where window space is desired for light or visibility, or simply for aesthetic reasons. Sectional doors also operate quietly and generate little noise in windy applications. They require significant backroom or headroom, depending on the application.

Benefits

  • Close Large Spans
  • Secure Critical Areas
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Durability
  • Security

Commercial fire doors are specified in facilities that require a listed fire door in a rated fire wall. Designed to close automatically in the event of a fire or alarmed event, fire-rated doors are available for commercial, industrial, institutional and retail applications. Common applications include factories, warehouses, mills, distribution centers and parking garages.

Benefits

  • Reliability: Provide dependable closings because of their simplicity of design. They are easy to operate and automatically close when there is a fire.
  • Durability: Many fire doors on the market today are not made to operate frequently or withstand periodic testing. Their design subjects the releasing mechanism to extreme impact, which can affect the reliability of the door closing in future tests and require frequent repairs.

Traffic or impact doors increase the efficiency of movement of employees and product between two areas in a facility. The stop, open, move through and manual closing of a traditional single, one way swing door. There are no door levers or knobs to turn, the door opens easily in both directions with a hand push or when impacted by a hand truck, pallet jack or even fork lift and then automatically returns to its closed position after you have passed through the opening.

Benefits

  • Increased Productivity: Employees move through the door opening quickly increasing efficiency in your facility.
  • Reduce Noise: Impact doors reduce noise between two areas.
  • Safety: Employees no longer need to press a lever or turn a knob to open a door, and the door opens easily in both directions.
  • Energy Efficiency: Easy operation and environmental control maintain temperatures and reduce gas and electric costs.

Strip doors are an economical solution. They are ideal for reducing hot and cold weather from entering a facility, withstand heavy industrial fork truck traffic and allow for easy passage of personnel, carts and machinery, while controlling insects, birds, dust and debris. They come in a variety of sizes and thicknesses for all door configurations.

Benefits

  • Reduces Hot or Cold Air Loss
  • Restricts Movement of Air Pollutants
  • Admits Light for Safer Environment
  • Provides Bird and Flying Insect Control
  • Isolates Noisy Machinery
  • Increases Employee Comfort
  • Easy to Install
  • Strong and Durable
  • Minimizes Maintenance
