DMF recently completed a project for a recycling plant in Hemmant Qld, supplying four large Aluflex Fold Up doors. This is the second project completed for this client, and this had very specific wind capacity requirements, given the site’s close locality to the coast. With doors opening sizes at 6000H x 9500W, the doors had to withstand 200km/h wind force, a demanding design criteria for any door type! DMF have been supplying large fold up doors for about 8 years, working with a Turkish based specialist manufacturer Shipyarddoors, whom we represent in the Australian market. The doors were modified as Aluflex Hangar doors with 400mm thick wind beams separating the dual panel structure. Structural mounting design is important, and we worked with the client using 3D modelling to finalise the door design to ensure the required result. The door operating speed is 0.25m/sec and the panel opens by concertining to the top location, by the bottom beam being lifted by straps at each end of the door structure.
Our response time is 2 business days.
