Do you need to add a door or two to your business? No matter what type of commercial business you run, it’s important to make the right choice for your door(s) from the wide variety of options available. Businesses rely on a variety of commercial door types and styles to improve their workflow and operations.
When you choose the right door for your facility and application, it will help your business save energy, increase workflow efficiency, improve indoor air quality, help insulate, and improve the overall work environment.
From security gates to overhead garage doors, counter doors, and curtains, there are the wide variety of options that can suit many different applications and business types.
Overhead Garage Doors
There is a wide variety of overhead commercial garage door types to choose from, includingsectional, coiling, vinyl roll-up, cold storage, insulated, and fire-rated.
Sectional overhead doors have connected panels that lay flat against the ceiling when open and are available insulated or non-insulated. Coiling overhead doors roll into a barrel that is mounted at the top of your door frame, and they are also available insulated or non-insulated.
Vinyl roll-up overhead doors open quickly, which are often used as internal doors to separate different areas of the building and still maintain a productive workflow. They can also be used as exterior doors for high-traffic entrances.
Cold storage overhead doors are used for cooler and freezer areas to help maintain the proper internal temperature both within the storage area and outside of it to improve energy efficiency.
Fire-rated doors are great for reducing the spread of fire and smoke but still maintaining functionality within a business. They are available in many styles, including coiling, counter shutters, swinging doors, and sliding doors.
Security Grills & Gates
Security grills, gates, and shutters are a great choice for shopping malls, concessions, hotels, street-access storefronts, schools, cafeterias, underground parking, airports, and more. You are able to increase security without blocking the view of in-store displays and merchandise, so you don’t stray away potential customers.
You commonly see security grilles in shopping malls and at the entrances of underground parking structures. Security gates are often used for accessible street storefronts, and security shutters are often seen used at jewelry stores or schools during off-hours, which allow zero visibility.
Traffic Impact Swinging Doors
Traffic impact swinging doors are a great asset for businesses that often utilize pallet jacks, forklifts, stock carts, and other personnel. They are highly sanitary, resist corrosion, and comply with USDA sanitation requirements.
They come with windows for increased visibility and safety, and there are a variety of accessories that you can add on, including kick plates, teardrop bumpers, and cart guards. Single and double door styles are available.
PVC Strip Curtains
While not a traditional commercial door, PVC strip curtains are an important barrier for protection from contamination and promote better insulation. They separate two different work areas from one another and allow for an efficient workflow. They are see-through and are made with strips of plastic that hang from the top of the door frame.
Counter Doors
Coiling counter shutters are best for any businesses with a countertop or opening that needs extra security during off-hours. They come in a variety of materials, like stainless steel, steel, and aluminum, and they can have solid or ventilated slates. Many sizes are available to fit your custom space perfectly.
