Bottlenecks and productivity are greatly affected when an overhead door goes down in a manufacturing facility creating massive headaches and costing money in many ways. How much depends on three things:
- Energy costs. Many areas of a manufacturing facility are separated by temperature-controlled zones or from interior and exterior environments which can drastically increase heating and cooling costs if left open
- Maintenance costs. Some low-cost solutions come with high maintenance requirements that end up costing more dollars and more headaches overall
- Revenue. When doors are out of service, alternative routes are needed and movement of product and production may be delayed, harming your bottom line
High-performance doors provide high-speed operation, and many models can take an impact from equipment and easily be reset or even self-repair to keep product moving. Designed with durable, quality parts they are built to last millions of operating cycles with minimal maintenance.
