Trevon – Investing in their
future with High Speed Doors
T
revon Industrial Finishers
Ltd, based in Colne just
outside of Burnley is a
family run business which
is celebrating their 40th anniversary
in 2015 and is a service first partner
of Akzo Nobel. Run by father and son;
Trevor and Jon Crabtree the business
is experiencing significant growth and
investment.
For a number of years their factory
unit has been subject to the elements
and in particular the wind due to its
location adjacent to the Lancashire
Pennines. They have toyed with
solutions including strip curtains
and various door types but nothing
has provided a sufficient long term
solution. Then, during a visit to a
customer in 2014 they had their first
experience with a high speed door. The
site had a number of high speed doors
in place and was only too happy to give
Trevon a demonstration of how the
doors worked and why they used them.
Trevor and Jon both agreed that high
speed doors were a possible solution to
their ongoing problems so they got in
touch with BID Group to ask about the
Klimate range of doors. They looked at
other companies that offered similar
products but due to the fact that
they had seen the Klimate doors in
operation and they were relatively local
it was decided that they would invest
in two of the doors initially.
When asked what their early thoughts
were on the doors both Trevor & Jon
were unanimous in their answer;
They looked at other
companies that offered
similar products but
due to the fact that they
had seen the Klimate
doors in operation and
they were relatively
local it was decided that
they would invest in two
of the doors initially.
“The doors serve a number of purposes
to us, not only do they provide a
barrier to the wind, rain and cold
they look great and help to improve
the professional appearance of the
business. In our line of business it is
crucially important that we control the
circulation of air within the building
to prevent cross contamination, the
high speed doors help in doing this
massively. Another added benefit
which we didn’t foresee at the outset
is that due to the clear vision panel in
the curtain it allows for greater levels
of natural light to enter the building
and makes the general working
environment much nicer and pleasant”.
Trevon have also visited the
manufacturing base of BID Group
since the doors have been installed
to see for themselves the work that
goes into the production of the doors
and in particular how the metal work
is powder coated as this is what they
specialise in. They were able to provide
some very useful feedback that will
go to improve the process of powder
coating which will ultimately benefit all
of the BID group customers and the
staff internally.
Another couple of openings have
already been earmarked for high
speed doors in the future and BID
Group look forward to helping with any
requirements that may arise.
