High-speed doors for optimum warehouse operations
In this fast-paced environment, high-speed doors (for optimum warehouse operations) are the means of moving raw materials from one part of the operation to the next. People, material handling equipment, and loads flow smoothly as long as the automatic high-speed doors are working quickly for optimum warehouse operations.
In the event that a door malfunctions or is put out of service due to maintenance issues, this highly productive operating system is undermined. Alternate routes must be used to move materials around the building. As long as the door remains unrepaired, traffic jams are inevitable, which slow down overall operations. As a result, productivity declines significantly.
It’s imperative that your production workflow isn’t hindered by weak facility doors. At Sole Prince Engineering, our technical team has designed and build high-speed doors providing comprehensive solutions to all of these issues, while maintaining a smooth flow of production on a day-to-day basis.
Important things to look for when choosing your high-speed doors for warehouses
High speeds
Door openings and closings are no longer a wait. High-speed doors can open up to 100 inches per second, helping manufacturers maintain a fast flow of raw materials and finished products throughout the building.

Excellent reliability
Designed to endure millions of operating cycles, high-speed doors provide years of reliable service. The result is fewer downtimes and less maintenance. With fewer wear parts, high-speed doors require less maintenance and repair over their lifetime as they are engineered to last. In addition to being built from tough, durable materials, such as polymer-impregnated monofilament polyester fabric, they are also designed to be puncture-resistant.
Fast Repair
The design of a well-made door should allow it to withstand a forklift or other equipment’s impact and break away to avoid damage to warehouse equipment, loads and nearby workers. Door panels lift out of the side column tracks instead of absorbing the force of a collision and move out of the way without being damaged.
Sole Prince Engineering high-speed roll-up doors, high-speed fold-up doors and eco-roll high-speed doors can be repaired within a minute after an accidental impact. Resetting the door is as simple as aligning the bottom of the door with the motor’s location. A simple push of the activation button restores full operation to the door in seconds and without the use of any tools.
