Loading Dock Doors
Black Equipment has a partner relationship with various loading dock door manufacturers including Wayne Dalton Door and NUCOR.
Sectional Doors
These doors are composed of several horizontal panels connected by hinges that allow the door to bend as it rises into the ceiling space of the loading dock area.
Tough, reliable, and thermally-efficient, sectional doors are composed of panel sections and operate on an overhead track, often insulated for energy efficiency.
- Customizable Aesthetics: Options for customization in terms of size, color, window placements, insulation levels, and options for adding branding graphics.
- Energy Efficiency Options: Can be well-insulated to help reduce energy costs
Rolling Doors
Service rolling doors are made up of interlocking metal slats that coil around a drum above the door opening. They’re designed for durability and security. They’re suitable for facilities with frequent loading and unloading and known for their speed, security, durability, and space-saving design.
- Durable: Made of sturdy materials like steel.
- Security: Often security-enhanced to be difficult for intruders to breach.
- Space Efficient: They open vertically into a barrel at the top of the door which is beneficial for installing additional light around the dock and wasting ceiling space.
- Low Maintenance: These doors require little maintenance. They’re tough and resistant to dents and cracks with the potential to last up to 30 years.
High Speed Doors
High-speed doors are designed for rapid opening and closing, which can enhance workflow efficiency and energy conservation. They often include features like advanced safety sensors and heavy-duty materials for both interior and exterior applications. They can be made of various materials like steel, aluminum, and rubber.
- Increased Productivity: Their rapid opening and closing speeds minimize downtime and delays, for a greater traffic flow capacity.
- Energy Savings: When equipped with insulating materials, their high-speed helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing energy costs.
- Improved Safety and Cleanliness: Fast operation reduces the time for contaminants to enter, making them well-suited for environments that require higher levels of hygiene.
- Suitable for: Industries like logistics and manufacturing where speed and efficiency are critical.
Fire Doors
Rolling Doors and High-Speed Doors are often configured as Fire Doors.
High Cycle Doors
These doors are designed for applications requiring a high number of open and close cycles. They’re built with durable components such as springs and rollers designed for longevity in applications with frequent usage.
