Rolling and bifold doors featured in Metal Architecture’s September 2020 issue.
AeroDoor International LLC
AeroDoor’s bottom rolling door system is made of steel and moves via a heavy-duty wheel and track system. The structural load of the door goes down into the wheels. Doors fit multiple opening sizes and can be configured to move independently or as a group in either direction. They are designed to meet regional wind load requirements, and buildings’ vertical and horizontal deflection criteria.
Overhead Door Corp.
Overhead Door Corp.’s EverServe Springless Security Grille Model 671S has a springless design. It has an upward coiling system built with curtain materials. The security grille allows air movement and visibility and comes with a 300,000-cycle door system limited warranty.
Renlita Doors North America LLC
Renlita’s S-2000 Hingeway bifold doors have steel frames and are counterweight balanced. They are operated manually or by an electric, direct drive motor. When open, the bifold doors fold along a horizontal hinge line and move upward, while the bottom panel opens until horizontal, which forms into an awning-like structure.
Schweiss Doors
Schweiss Doors offers lift-strap conversion kits to replace cable lift systems on bifold doors. The kits come with lift-straps, motors, control boxes, electrical components and installation instructions. The lift-straps strength-to-weight ratio is 29,000 pounds tensile strength, compared to a 1/4-inch cable’s 7,200-pound rating.
