High-speed doors for supermarkets
Supermarkets are busy areas where operational efficiency and safety must coexist with customer and employee comfort. From loading and unloading areas to internal access points, adaptable solutions are key to optimising workflows, maintaining environmental conditions and complying with current regulations. With this in mind, Ferroflex has designed two specific solutions for supermarkets.
With a compact design, access solutions for these businesses optimise space and facilitate logistics. They also provide excellent separation between the shop area and the warehouse. Furthermore, these types of high-speed doors are equipped with advanced sensors and safety mechanisms to ensure optimal and reliable operation, protecting customers, staff, stock and facilities.
At Ferroflex, we understand the importance of aligning with corporate identity, which is why doors for supermarkets can be customised with iconography, images, logos or signage. Below, we detail the advantages of the two most popular models for this sector:
High-speed supermarket door
The high-speed supermarket door is specifically designed for dynamic and demanding environments where there is a high volume of continuous traffic of goods and personnel. Its main advantages are:
● Speed and efficiency: guarantees continuous flow thanks to its quick opening and closing mechanism.
● Improved safety: features advanced sensors to prevent accidents and ensure safe operation.
● Durability: high-quality materials resistant to daily wear and tear.
● Self-repair: in the event of impact, the curtain comes out of the guide to prevent breakage. When the curtain is raised again, the side rail re-enters the guide and is ready for use.
● Adaptability: fits perfectly into small spaces and is highly resistant to possible impacts from trolleys, etc.
● Customisation: the curtain can be customised according to requirements.
High-speed door with EI120 fire-rated curtain
For those who need fire compartmentalisation, the EI120 fire-rated curtain high-speed door is the ideal solution for supermarkets. This model consists of two integrated solutions: a rapid door and a fire-rated curtain. Under normal circumstances, the fire-rated curtain remains rolled up in the header, and the door functions as a standard self-repairing access point. In the event of a fire, the fire-rated curtain lowers, separating the two spaces and preventing the spread of flames. Both curtains are rolled up inside the same header, and each has its own independent drive system.
The main advantages of this solution include:
● Fire protection: the curtain's EI120 classification provides up to 120 minutes of fire resistance.
● Space optimisation: compared to a side sliding fire door, the entire system is housed in a single structure, freeing up space and maximising storage area.
● Connection to the security system: it connects to the fire alarm and detection system so that it is automatically activated in emergencies.
Both models are compatible with accessories that can extend their functionality and convenience, such as handles, photocells, radars, push buttons, or remote controls.
High-speed doors for supermarkets, available in both standard and fire-rated versions, offer efficiency, safety, and reliability. Opting for this type of solution means investing in a more agile, secure operation that meets the current demands of the distribution sector. At Ferroflex, we have a wide range of industrial high-speed doors, which you can explore in our catalogue. If you need further information or advice, our team of technicians is at your disposal.
