Rapid Action Bi-Parting Doors

The Whirlwind High Speed Horizontal Bi-Parting Door has been described as one of “the most advanced high-speed doors on the market” and is the high speed door of choice for many of Europe’s leading retailers and manufacturing companies.


Lateral Opening

Opening speed can achieve 5m/sec - making it the World's fastest door! Opening time is twice as fast due to the lateral opening of the door halves and in contrast to vertically opening doors, the complete opening height is immediately accessible for the user.

Transparent panels at eye-level maintain vision between one area and the next. Once the door begins to open, vision is extended to the entire door height, enabling quick and safe passage of goods. The risk of collision is reduced, preventing interruption of work as well as expensive door repairs.

Short opening and closing cycles reduce draughts and heat exchange, thus reducing energy costs and the possibility of illness. The air cushion between the twin-skinned door leaves provides excellent thermal and sound insulation, thus reducing heating expenses and improving sound containment.

An additional advantage is that even if one door skin is damaged, the door remains sealed and operative.
