Roll Up Doors for Heavy Equipment Storage

A heavy equipment storage door may be worth the investment if your facility needs extra protection and security. Storage doors have a variety of styles, designs, and applications that are useful for buildings that need insulation or require theft prevention. No matter your needs, several kinds of storage doors may work for you.

How to Select a Heavy Equipment Storage Door

Understanding how and where you will use your storage door can help you find the right type of door that fits your needs. There are both light-duty and heavy-duty versions that work well for different applications and deserve equal consideration. Consider the following factors when determining how to select a heavy equipment storage door:

1. Application

Ask yourself how much wear and tear your door may experience. Will it be in a facility with heavy traffic? How much will the door be affected by the weather?

Light-duty roll-up doors are helpful in applications that require infrequent usage, such as self-storage, recreational, or agricultural operations. Keep in mind that light-duty doors may not offer as much protection and security but are helpful in areas that won't receive heavy traffic or impactful weather. 

Heavy-duty storage doors are known for their durability and long-lasting design. Most are meant to withstand high temperatures, protect the building from fire or smoke or operate as a security measure against theft. Heavy-duty doors are especially useful in commercial and industrial facilities that require protection for their goods or employees. This includes warehouses and distribution centers to loading docks or terminals. 

Insulation is another factor to consider before investing in a storage door. For facilities that require climate-controlled temperatures, an insulated roll-up door may be the right option for preventing thermal energy transfers and saving money on the overall cost of heating and cooling the building.

2. Location

Consider where your building will be located. Especially in coastal areas where hurricanes or strong windstorms are possible, a door with a wind lock or an insulated storage door may be a good option. Wind locks keep the door in place, while insulated doors help regulate temperatures no matter the weather outside. 

Make sure the door you choose is up to code. Depending on your area, facilities may be required to adhere to specific standards and rules. If you aren't sure of your state's requirements, contact your local officials to find out which door is right for you.

3. Benefits

Among the many benefits of investing in a heavy equipment storage door are its security, efficiency, and durability. 

Benefits

A secure storage door ensures that your equipment, products, and employees are always safe. While a lack of a storage door could jeopardize your facility, a secure door will lower the chance of theft while protecting your warehouse from harsh weather.

In general, insulated storage doors are energy efficient and temperature consistent. Insulation helps you regulate temperatures inside the building, saving you money on heating and cooling costs in the long run.

Heavy equipment storage doors are also durable and long-lasting. You won't have to worry about replacing the door after bad weather or strong winds. As well as offering protection from the elements, storage doors can withstand heavy usage and won't require maintenance as often as light-duty doors.

Types of Heavy Equipment Storage Doors

Many heavy equipment storage overhead doors have various features that may fit your facility's needs. Considering each kind of door will help you decide which one may be right for you and your building. 

1. Roll-Up

Roll-up storage doors use interlocking slats that coil around cylindrical supports. One of the benefits of roll-up doors is their ability to reduce noise while providing safety and durability. 

2. High Performance

High-performance doors are reliable, functional, and, most importantly, fast. A fast door is efficient, as it saves time for facilities and warehouses that need to keep a good pace. They are also secure and durable, built to last a long time while made of heavy-duty material that prevents theft. Many high-performance doors come with steel, sealed entrances, and a strong exterior. 

3. Maximum Protection

If your area is often hit with extreme weather, it may be a good idea to invest in a maximum protection storage door. These doors are made to withstand strong hurricanes and prevent theft or assaults. With top-level security and strong materials, maximum protection doors ensure that your equipment and products are always safe. 

4. Insulated

Insulated doors are a great addition to any building that requires temperature controls. As well as saving you money on energy, many insulated doors comply with necessary state certifications in certain areas. The various features available in insulated doors make them a worthy investment. Such heavy equipment doors reduce noise, protect against fire, control the internal climate, and help the environment. 

5. Security Grilles

Security grilles are usually available in side-folding or upward-coiling designs. Using aluminum or steel, security grilles offer high protection against theft or assault. Often used in malls or airport terminals, these doors are a barrier against dirt and debris, made with aluminum, steel, polycarbonate, or tempered glass.

6. Counter Doors and Shutters

Counter doors are an excellent solution for retail, corporate, and commercial facilities. Often counter doors and shutters are used to protect areas within movie theaters, food courts, bars, and pharmacies. They prevent theft and provide security when the facility is not in use.

7. Wind Load Door

Rolling doors can be configured to include wind load. This adds an extra layer of protection during high winds or hurricanes. Engineered to protect the facility's structure, wind load doors lessen the chance that the building will buckle or become misaligned.
