Rapid roll doors for outdoor use

 
Components and construction
The NovoFold is an electrically driven folding door without balance springs. The door curtain consists of horizontal sections made of extremely durable polyester-reinforced PVC with reinforcement profiles and heavy duty belts. These belts pull the curtain into a compact package above the door opening. The door curtain can be equipped with various types of window- or insect netting sections. The bottom of the door curtain has a solid HardEdge bottom beam with a flexible bottom seal. Steel columns ensure smooth lateral guidance of the door curtain. The steel columns are mounted to the steel top cover to form one sturdy unit, onto which the roller and drive are mounted.

Materials
The door columns are made of hot dip galvanised steel. The horizontal roller is made of steel. The HardEdge bottom beam is made of aluminium and has a flexible bottom seal with opto-sensors. The door curtain is 900 gr/m², class 2 PVC with a polyester reinforcement inlay.

Colour
The door curtain is available in 9 standard colours. The columns are supplied as standard with a gray powdercoat in RAL 7011. All other RAL-colours are optionally available.

Energy conscious
Lower your energy bill, quite easily, by installing exterior doors that open and close rapidly. NovoSpeed Thermo opens at a speed of 1.1 – 1.5 m/s (depending on the track system and size of the door).

Panel surfaces and colours
Available with Microline surface finish. Door leaves are standard supplied in RAL 9002, but can also be coated in virtually any RAL colour (optional). Actual colours may differ slightly.

Responding to demand in the marketplace
When Novoferm was designing its product range, user demand and requirements played a key role. The company's close cooperation with virtually all sectors of industry throughout Europe has proven to be very successful. The key to choosing an industrial door is finding the right brand, type and design. Choosing the right product can hugely optimize logistics processes and cost structures. Sectional doors are the most common solution for openings leading out of industrial buildings. Installed on industrial or commercial premises, they are attractive, effectively close the gap, lock reliably, offer good resistance against burglars, have excellent insulation properties and are safe and easy to use.

Minimize unnecessary energy loss
Doors to the outside should be kept open for as little time as possible. A conventional exterior door opens and closes relatively slowly, resulting in unnecessary energy loss. This energy loss can be minimized by installing a particularly rapid roller shutter. Conventional exterior doors are opened in the morning and closed at night. The rapid roll door affords and blocks access throughout the working day. The high speed at which it opens and closes stops air flow, thus minimizing energy loss. NovoSpeed exterior industrial doors were developed to withstand the harshest conditions.

Industry parks
Nowadays, visitors to modern industrial or commercial parks are often surprised at how elegantly the buildings are designed. The appearance of an industrial or commercial building is no longer dictated solely by the need for functional reliability and efficiency. Special designs and high-quality materials have become the norm rather than the exception. Which is one of the reasons why what used to be called an industrial estate is now an "industry park"! Local communities often specify additional requirements in respect of building design as more and more industry parks are being built on the edge of residential areas. The new range of NovoSpeed Thermo sectional doors is the perfect response to this trend. The extensive choice of features and designs gives modern architects ample scope to draft strikingly attractive industrial solutions.

Non-residential properties
Novoferm sectional and rapid roll doors are often found in non-residential buildings, such as fire stations, showrooms, workshops, industrial yards and distribution centres. Depending on the use and function of the area, you can choose between fully insulated sandwich panels with or without windows, and glass panels that let in as much natural daylight as possible. The options for combining a broad range of colours, panels and infills create huge scope for different designs.
