DOOR PROTECTION: SLIDING DOOR

Doors are one of the most critical points in any plant as every single passage of a trolley can generate significant risks of damage.

The solutions dedicated to the prevention of impacts on a door can be different and the choice of the ideal product depends exclusively on two fundamental parameters:

Type of the moving vehicle;

Type of the door to be protected: sectional, sliding or hinged door.

Sliding doors (for example REI doors) slide parallel to the wall thanks to a track and are probably the most vulnerable element within an industrial plant. When they are not properly protected, a few seconds are enough for forklifts or manually-operated vehicles to cause serious damage. They are an essential element for dividing areas or departments and it is necessary to think about their protection, both to comply with the cost saving policies and especially to guarantee a longer life of the doors.

So how to protect the doors?

After verifying what type of vehicles are used inside a facility and at what average speed they travel, sliding doors are usually protected with 1 Guardrail and 4 Impact Safety Bollards or one Trolley Wheel Stop.

To maximize the benefits of the Impact Safety Bollards, the evaluation of the application and the installation must be carried out in a workmanlike manner.
