Fast doors for an optimal organization in sectors of supermarkets
Supermarkets are establishments that receive a large influx of customers and goods and must meet high standards of food safety and hygiene. Guaranteeing the sectorisation and uninterrupted operations is key to satisfying the business's demands and objectives. For this, having high-speed doors such as those by Ferroflex is essential.
One of the main challenges in supermarkets is to separate the warehouse from the retail area. This division into sectors must allow for a smooth flow of staff and goods between the two areas, and delimit the space for customers. Additionally, storage areas require stable thermal conditions to avoid energy losses. To meet these needs, Ferroflex offers solutions adapted to each area of the supermarket.
High-speed doors for uninterrupted workflows
The self-repairing supermarket high-speed door is an ideal choice for supermarkets. Its vertical opening makes it possible to separate work areas without taking up lateral space and to make the most of the storage area. Its opening and closing speed optimises the flow of staff and goods. For perfect integration into the design of the establishment, the door can be customised by installing windows, choosing the colour of the fabric from a wide range, or even printing images, signs, or logos.
In addition, its self-repairing system avoids interruptions in operation. The side racks of the curtain come out of the guides if, for example, a collision occurs during the passage of goods. When the door is elevated, the racks are reinserted into the guides and return to their original configuration. In this way, the mechanism avoids breakages and breakdowns of the door due to the activity of the establishment itself.
Another model that also provides safety to a supermarket is the high-speed door with fire curtain EI120. Its innovative design includes two parallel curtains rolled up inside an integrated head, each with its own drive system. In a normal situation, it functions as a standard self-repairing high-speed door, while in the event of a fire emergency, the fire curtain prevents the spread of fire between rooms. In this way, the door combines the speed of a high-speed door with the fire protection provided by the fire retardant tarpaulin.
To facilitate the quick product replenishment at peak times, the reinforced aluminium high-speed roll-up door and the aluminium high-speed door for interior areas favour sectorisation between warehouses and retail areas. Both models have a simple and elegant design, which can also be customised with colours and windows according to the aesthetics of the premises and the characteristics of the access.
For areas requiring low temperatures, the high-speed roll-up door for cold rooms down to 0 degrees minimises heat transmission between rooms. Its high-resistance polyester fabric maintains optimum temperature conditions between two rooms up to a difference of 25 degrees on either side of the door. In addition, this door and a maximum ambient humidity of 30%. This minimises cold loss due to the door opening and contributes to a higher energy efficiency of the room. In this sense, all the high-speed door models offered by Manusa contribute to greater energy efficiency by reducing the temperature changes between the spaces to which they give access.
Optional equipment can be added to all these doors to maximise security and regulate access. Among others, there are various possibilities to regulate opening, such as remote controls, sensors, or a UPS system that allows emergency opening in the event of a power failure. All in all, Ferroflex offers a wide variety of options that adapt to the characteristics of each supermarket with the aim of offering an agile and efficient service to its customers.
