Case Study – Automotive Client
For this project, we supplied to a trade client carrying out a door installation for a major automotive manufacturer, which was operating in a high traffic environment.
The end user’s existing roller shutter doors, frequently left open for operational flow, were causing substantial heat loss. Its location near a river exacerbated the issue, leading to cold working conditions for employees.
Our High Speed Door Solution
This prompted the need for efficient high speed doors at four vehicle access points (two entry, two exit) to improve temperature control and maintain a smooth workflow. Following a technical assessment, we specified the AUTO-FULL rapid roll door.
The GS Doors team chose this for its dual capability in optimising temperature management and traffic flow. With the AUTO-FULL’s rapid action, it is able to limit cold ingress in exposed locations. Furthermore, the zip curtain system provides superior sealing, creating a barrier between the external and internal environment.
The fast action also enables the client’s vehicles to move through the openings quickly and seamlessly, improving workflow and operational efficiency. This is supported by integrated radar movement sensors that enable fully automated, touch-free vehicle access. For added operational safety, the AUTO-FULL door incorporates a flexible bottom edge to prevent potential damage to the vehicles.
The Result
The installation of our AUTO-FULL rapid roll doors effectively addressed the end user’s heat loss issues. The fast action and superior sealing of these doors has significantly improved temperature control within the manufacturing unit, improving conditions for the employees.
Furthermore, the automated operation has facilitated a smoother and more efficient flow of vehicle traffic, contributing to overall operational improvements. The inclusion of safety features, such as the flexible bottom edge, also provided added value by minimising the risk of damage to vehicles.
