ROI

Capturing Return On Investment

Energy Savings. High-speed doors minimize energy loss by reducing the time they remain open, helping maintain consistent temperatures. Tracking energy bills before and after installation reveals the impact on heating and cooling costs.

Productivity. Faster opening and closing times reduce wait times for forklifts and employees, improving workflow efficiency. Comparing operational throughput before and after installation can quantify these productivity improvements.

Reduced Maintenance Costs. High-speed doors are designed for durability and require less maintenance. Tracking maintenance expenses on previous doors versus the high-speed door highlights any cost reductions.

FAQ

High Speed Doors FAQ

ProLift addresses frequently asked questions about high-speed doors, offering insights and solutions to help you make informed decisions.

Why Should I Replace An Older High Speed Door?

Older high speed doors often feature a solid bottom bar that can be damaged if struck by a fast-moving forklift, leading to costly repairs and lost functionality. Modern high speed doors with a flexible bottom edge can withstand impacts and be easily put back on track, significantly reducing maintenance expenses and justifying an upgrade for long-term savings.

How Can A High Speed Door Help With Climate Control?

High speed doors are credited in controlling humidity within a facility while also resolving issues that increase energy costs, including: 

  • Damaged doors and worn seals compromising temperature and climate control by allowing conditioned air to escape. 
  • Existing doors slow to open and close influence operators to leave doors open and further impact energy efficiency and climate regulation.

 

Do High Speed Doors Automatically Open And Close?

Yes, high speed doors can be automated to open and close as forklifts and pedestrians approach, enhancing efficiency and maintaining climate control.

How Well Does A High Speed Door Withstand Wind And Other Outdoor Elements?

High speed doors can be checked and rated for durability to withstand wind. Additional reinforcements can also be put into place during installation. 

Which Doors Provide High Levels Of Durability And Security?
