There is a myriad of doors that can be used in various environments; you are guaranteed to find a door that meets your specific requirements.  In this article, we will be looking at different entrance solutions, and their benefits and applications.

Strip Curtains

Strip curtains are suspended entrance solutions that allow individuals or vehicles to go through easily. They are manufactured from plasticised PVC material, which makes them durable and flexible.

Strip curtains will be useful for you if you need to demarcate certain areas in your warehouse or factory.

Strip curtains have the following applications:

Impact Doors

If you require door systems for high traffic areas such as restaurants, impact doors are the solution.

These doors are suitable for push-carts, pedestrians and motorised pallet traffic.

Benefits of impact doors:
