Why the Spiral® FV®

Using ultra-high-speed operation and unique Spiral® technology, the Spiral® FV® door is fast and extremely quiet. Top-to-bottom, full-width window slats provide extra safety and a high-tech look to promote an enviable image of cutting-edge operations.

The Spiral FV door is ideal for modern production and commercial environments, such as automotive dealerships, government, parking, and security applications where a full view overhead security door is desired.

Spiral FV is backed by a 5-year limited warranty on motor/mechanical components and materials, plus a 2-year limited warranty on electrical components. Most Spiral models can also be outfitted with the optional Spiral Pre-Wired Premium Package. This reduces electrical connections and enhances aesthetics among other benefits.
