Speedor Storm ready for large external openings
Hart Door System’ s wind-resistant, high-speed, industrial rolling door, Speedor Storm, is ready for business be it a factory, warehouse, storage facility or any kind of plant operation writes Chris Dobson.
With wind resistance available up to‘ wind class 5’, as defined by DIN EN 12424, in the closed position this high-speed door is ready for openings to a maximum 8 metres width or height subject to 48 square metres.
The ability to withstand substantial wind pressure means major entrances open / close automatically so avoiding a less-than-optimal working environment and the escape of heated air important with Winter on its way.
Speedor Storm helps industry specifically by;
• Aiding productivity – because entering and leaving a building can be done more rapidly.
• Helping to create a better working environment through its highspeed operation which means there are no unnecessary open periods.
• By saving on the substantial cost of heating.
Made in the UK at Hart’ s Newcastle upon Tyne headquarters from where its teams of engineers are available throughout the UK for installation of Speedor Storms and subsequent servicing and maintenance thereafter. Speedor Storm’ s strength and wind resistance comes from its multilayer PVC and textile, both longlasting and tear-resistant and its inbuilt horizontal curtain braces and no external cumbersome and noisy external wind bars.

There is a colour choice as well as‘ a with or without vision panel’ which combine to deliver a good appearance, operational effectiveness and a performance product.
Safety features are of course paramount, and here they include a state-of-the-art safety light curtain, anti-fall protection and sensors to activate the door. There is a range of operating methods that include hands free, floor loops, radar, photo beam, radio operation, movement sensors, handheld or vehiclemounted radio transmitters, or simple push button and pull cords.
The automatic operation can be set to include or exclude pedestrians as desired. If warning lights or klaxons are required, these can be incorporated in a complete door system and control panel which are designed for any conceivable need including integration into a Building Management System if necessary. This is delivered via its unique guide system in combination with other carefully designed features.
