"After two other companies couldn't figure out our fire door, GDoB had it inspected and re-certified the same week."
Property Manager, Jekyll IslandHigh-Speed Fabric & Rubber Doors
Fast-opening fabric and rubber doors built for high-cycle commercial environments. Loading docks. Cold storage. Warehouse operations. Distribution centers.
Up to 2 Million Cycles. Open in Seconds.
Standard commercial doors are not built for high-cycle operations. A loading dock runs 800 cycles a day. Standard doors fail in months. High-speed fabric and rubber doors are engineered for millions of cycles and open at 60 to 80 inches per second. Made for the operations that need them.
- Fabric high-speed roll-up doors
- Rubber bug-shield and exterior-rated doors
- Cold storage and freezer-rated assemblies
- Self-repairing crash-recovery designs
- Wind-rated exterior fabric doors
- 60 to 80 inches per second open speeds
- Up to 2 million cycle ratings
- Variable frequency drive controls
Faster Doors. Lower Energy. Less Damage.
Energy Savings
Doors that close faster reduce heated or cooled air loss. Cold storage facilities see 15 to 25 percent energy savings.
Forklift Crash Recovery
Self-repairing fabric doors re-set after impact instead of needing service calls. Saves thousands per year in dock door damage.
Throughput Increase
Faster open and close cycles increase loading dock throughput. Distribution centers see 5 to 10 percent more loads per day.
Before You Call.
What is a self-repairing door?
Some high-speed fabric doors are designed to disengage from their tracks when struck (typically by a forklift) and automatically re-thread back into the tracks on the next cycle. Saves the service call.
How fast do high-speed doors open?
Standard high-speed fabric doors open at 60 to 80 inches per second. Some specialty units exceed 100 inches per second. Compare to a standard rolling steel door at 8 to 12 inches per second.
Are these doors weather-rated for exterior use?
Yes, exterior-rated rubber and reinforced fabric models handle wind, rain, and UV. We can also recommend interlock setups with exterior storm doors for severe weather.
How long do they last?
Properly maintained high-speed fabric and rubber doors typically last 7 to 15 years before major component replacement. Specific cycle life depends on operation count and environment.
Are they more expensive than standard rolling steel?
Yes, typically 2 to 4 times the install cost. Pays back through reduced damage, energy savings, and throughput increases in high-cycle environments.
