For internal and external use our folding doors are a very stable and functional industrial door. They range from light weight to heavy duty with either flexible or rigid door panels. Generally applied in industrial and commercial buildings automatic operation of the door is desirable in intensive traffic situations or in cases where the vehicle and/or load may not come into contact with the door. Please view our three models to see which meets your specification.

FTL = Internal Application only The light weight folding door type FTL with flexible door panels and pneumatic operation. The door opens 90 degrees in one direction. It is a very stable and functional industrial door for use in extremely heavy conditions and generally applied in industrial and commercial buildings. Automatic operation of the door is desirable in intensive traffic situations or in cases where the vehicle and or load may not come into contact with the door, Specification/construction The FTL pneumatic folding door consists of one or two door leaves, a stable upper beam with double-action compressed air cylinder (s) and the control box. The door leaves are built up of a vertical clamping profile and a horizontal folding arm. The PVC door leaf is made of 7mm transparent PVC sheet, divided into two halves which are attached together over the full height of the panel by means of a flexible hinge section the door panel is attached to the main construction by clamping strips. The folding arm of the door construction hangs from the guide track of the upper beam via a sliding trolley. |

Materials The door frame and upper beam are made of steel. The door panel consists optionally of:
Finish The upper beam and all the door frame parts are finished in zinc epoxy. The clamping profiles are galvanised.
Dimensions Maximum door area approx.10m2 (based on an internal double door). Larger dimensions are possible subject to application conditions
Operation The door is opened by means of compressed air cylinders mounted above the door opening

Operation
In principle any form of actuator can be used. Standard actuators are : pull switch, key switch, push button, photocell, radar detector, induction loop detection or by remote control. Click here to see our range of control actuators.
Safety As standard the door falls automatically open in the event of a power failure (other configurations are available). the door panel hinge sections clearly mark the door leaves in the closed position and the edge of the panels n the open position.
Technical specifications
Mounting structure requirements and connection Power supply (wall socket) and air supply (connection nipple with 1/2" internal diameter) must be present within 1 meter from the control box. The compressed air cylinder must be clean and dry.

FTM = Internal application only The FTM folding door with flexible door panels and pneumatic or electrical operation. The door opens 90 degrees in one direction. It is a very stable and functional industrial door for use in extremely heavy conditions and generally applied in industrial and commercial buildings. Automatic operation of the door is desirable in intensive traffic situations or in cases where the vehicle and or load may not come into contact with the door, Specification/construction The FTM pneumatic folding door consists of one or two door leaves, a stable upper beam with double-action compressed air cylinder (s) and the control box. The door leaves are built up of a vertical tube construction and a horizontal folding arm. The PVC door panel is divided per door leaf into two halves which are attached together over the full height of the panel by means of a flexible coloured PVC hinge section. The door panel is attached to the main construction by clamping strips. The folding arm of the door construction hangs from the guide track of the upper beam via a sliding trolley. The heavy duty trolley is fitted with nylon rollers, thus ensuring smooth and noise-free operation. |

Materials The door frame and upper beam are made of steel. The door panel (7 to 10 mm thick) consists optionally of:
Finish The upper beam and all the door frame parts are finished in zinc epoxy..
Dimensions Maximum door area approx. 50m2 (based on an internal double door). Larger dimensions are possible subject to application conditions
Operation The door is opened by means of compressed air cylinders mounted above the door opening or in the case of electric operation by a single electric motor.

FTS = Inside and outside application The FTS folding door with electric door opener and rigid door panels. The door opens 90 degrees in one direction. It is a very stable and functional industrial door for use in extremely demanding conditions and generally applied in industrial and commercial buildings. Automatic operation of the door is desirable in intensive traffic situations or in cases where the vehicle and or load may not come into contact with the door, Specification/construction The FTS electric folding door with rigid door panels consists of one or two door leaves, a stable upper beam, on which the electric drive unit is mounted. Each door leaf is built up of two frames made of tubular sections. These frames can be infilled with various materials. On the closing side the door leaves are connected to the guide rail of the upper beam by means of a sliding trolley. This heavy-duty trolley has PVC guide rollers, thus ensuring extremely smooth and low-noise operation of the door. |

Materials
The upper beam and brackets are made of steel. The framework of the door leaves is built up of HOP sections, aluminium clamping strips and rubber gaskets The infill panels can be chosen from :
Finish
Dimensions Maximum door area approx. 16m2 (based on an external double door). Our folding doors can come in larger dimensions available on request
Operation The folding door is opened by means of compressed air cylinders mounted above the door opening or in the case of electric operation by a single electric motor.
Drive The folding doors opened by means of an electric drive unit with gearbox, which is mounted centrally above the door opening.
Control / Operation
|
Safety In the event of emergency the door can be opened manually by releasing the motor brake. To this end a release mechanism is mounted within arm's reach on one side of the door. The closing edge of the door is provided with a self-testing safety edge.
Technical specifications
Mounting structure requirements and connection Power supply in the form of a main switch, must be present within a radius of 1 metre from the control box.
