The benefits of high speed doors
20 October 2017
HAG high speed doors are designed to help minimise heat transfer by providing thermal insulation and quick opening and closing speeds. High speed doors are available in a range of designs, with integrated safety features. Thermal break doors offer a low maintenance solution and provide a thermal barrier for areas in frequent use.

High Speed Doors manufactured from toughened PVC offer a temperature resistance from -30 to +70 °C and are resistant to wear and tear. Fast action via electric operation and state of the art safety features are included as standard.
This depends mainly on the size of the door and the motor you are using. Generally a Speed Door opening speed is up to 3 m/s, slowdown in opening up to 0.8m m/s and closing 0.8 m/s.
The door itself is very safe providing all the relevant security features are fitted, such as safety edges, photocells, vision panels, self-correcting curtain mechanism and radar.
The door itself does not provide any actual security as the curtain is made from PVC. These doors are generally used behind a Roller Shutter or Sectional Door, which will be used to secure the premises when access is not required.
All of our high speed doors can be customised to your own specifications: as well as the physical dimensions. These features can include safety mechanisms, visual panels that allow light into the building, colour requirements and remote controls. They are suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
When specifying a high speed door for a project it’s important to consider the following:
• Width & height of opening
• Aesthetics
• Frequency of use
• Features of operation
• Budget
• Head room requirements
• Finish
• Thermal protection
• Acoustic properties
