Impacts of a Broken Overhead Door in a Transit Facility

Operational disruptions, safety, environmental control and maintenance and energy costs are all concerns when overhead doors in transit facilities are not preforming up to standards. How this affects facilities:

  • Depending on the number of openings in the facility even one door being down can cause huge delays in exiting and entering of facilities

  • In temperature-controlled areas, overhead doors left open allow conditioned air loss increased energy costs

  • If overhead doors are not built for high-cycle, high-demand environments, repeat maintenance needs and costs not only impact budgets but operational time as well

High-performance doors are made with durable, quality materials that are meant for high-cycle environments and stand up to harsh conditions. They help keep critical facilities running with unmatched reliability.
