An email response for now is fine. Not looking for exact numbers yet. Just pricing around is all. Thank you for your time. Loren

We are planning for a garage/RV garage combination residential project. Very interested in your bifold design that can be built into sidewall of garage looking at 14ft wide x 16ft high fast opening bifold door that will finish at 14ft high clear. Will add weight loads of siding and trims. This could add 500 lbs max load. I'm familiar with Schwess doors. I have installed a few of your doors for the Paint booth industries

12

Trying to determine if a Schweiss Bifold or hydraulic door will work best on a PEMB we are erecting. We have 12" X 8" X 5/8" jambs and an W8X24 header on a 28' X 28' opening. We need a Schweiss door that will result in no loss of headroom and that will be a fast opening door.

I am in the midst of designing a college administration building that includes two single swing hydraulic doors: 1) 16 ft high and 18 ft. wide; and 2) 16 ft. high and 21 ft. wide. These are intended to provide natural smoke control for the building atrium, so will be automatically opened when the building smoke alarm system is activated. To meet code requirements the doors as described above must be fully opened in less than 60 seconds. I noticed that the bifold fast opening door components in your literature, including hydraulic cylinders seem more robust than your competitors and am hopeful that this translates into faster operation. Please call me on my cell phone Monday morning.

17

I'm trying to figure out if any of your solutions would work for my situation. I have an old fire house with (2) garage doors approximately 10 ft. wide by 12 ft. tall. The current doors are traditional sectional doors on a track, but I need new fast opening bifold doors that do not have a track on the inside. The construction of the building is cinderblock with brick on the exterior.

18

I have gotten a quote from you all before but that building purchase did not work out. I would be looking at a fast opening bifold door 45 wide, the building will be a steel one and 16 high, I did not put a height detention in the quote description below. Thanks Dave H

19

Need a very rough idea of cost for a 40ft wide by 16 t high fast opening bifold door. These measurements are not "exact" at the moment. (We may only need say 35ft wide) But we do have large columns about 40ft apart and a large beam connecting overhead. We are in the early stages of planning to rearrange our plant layout which includes a new BIG door to replace two rollup doors with removable divider. Myself and our COO like the look of the bifold doors.

Hi, I'm finishing construction of a new residential garage/workshop with two 9'wX8'h garage door openings. I'm interested in installing bifold fast opening doors in them, to minimize overhead obstructions (due to vehicle lifts that will be in the shop). (Although I suppose your one-piece hydraulic door could work, too.) The shop is heated and Maine gets cold, so I need insulated doors ... preferably something comparable to R18 overhead doors. What would an estimate be for the price of two R18(-ish) insulated 9'x8' door systems? Do you have distributors in New England? Also ... how difficult are the systems to install? Comparable to typical overhead doors? And what would be the availability? (How soon could doors be shipped to me?) Thank you. -jason scott jasones@gmail.com

I'm interested in specify your FAST Opening hydraulic  or bifold doors for a project. There are some unique features though that will require custom doors (4 total). The doors will be used on a material storage concrete bunker that is highly corrosive. Is is possible to have a door frame made with frp structural shapes and frp siding? Preliminary sizes would be 14' wide x 25'-6" tall. There will be a steel header so the top hinges can connect in a typical fashion, but the side jambs will utilize the concrete walls of the bunker. Is this fast opening door something that you can accommodate?

Getting ready to install a door in the rear wall of our shop. Because of a vehicle lift being installed close to the wall, there will not be enough head room for a "Track/Rail" standard type garage door. I'm interested in a BiFold, insulated fast opening door. Thinking a 10' wide would work. The ceiling is about 11' high. Don't know if you have contractors in this area to install, but I have a friend who does this type work and can get it installed. Just as well have your man install the fast opening door to make sure it opens fast. Would you contact me with some pricing? The other end of this building has very large sliding doors, if we go this route and I like it, we will be changing this door also. Thanks

47

I'm interested in a 46-50' wide door and I need 13' vertical clearance. I'd like to keep my new building height as low as possible, so can get a 14' high building to work? I need bids from you on fast opening bifold strap doors that will work. I haven't narrowed down if I'm going with a wood or steel building yet, is there a price difference on your doors for that? Thanks.

We are in the design phase of an airport snow removal equipment building. One of the bays is for a runway broom that is 22' wide. We need a fast opening door 26' to 28' wide with a 16' clear opening. Allowable Stress based component & cladding wind loads are 27.7 and -30.8 psf. Overhead sectional doors are inadequate for that load/span. Can you accommodate the loads with a lift strap bifold door? The door would also be clad with 3" (or 4")thick insulated metal panels. Another question might be - Are your doors made in the USA with USA components? This is desirable...but we can get around it if required. We will require 2 of these fast opening doors. Can you provide budgetary installed costs? If not, budgetary product cost? Thank you.

I have a 42'x 48' Miracle Truss building that I erected in 2000. I have 14' eaves with a bifold door that is 40' wide with a Lift Master cable lifting system. With it being 16 years old, I am in need of replacing the 3 cables that lift the door. I came across your site while searching for bottom rubber seal for the door as it needs to be replaced also. I saw your strap lifting system and read about retrofit on your older doors. I was wondering if it would be possible to retrofit my doors with your fast opening door system strap doors system? I already have replacement cables that I was going to install, but like the straps system better. Please let me know if it is possible to retrofit my door with your system.

63

Interested in a bifold BYOD fast opening all strap doors.  Currently working with contractor for design He believes 8"X8" wood post will comply The building is 40x64 with bifold on side wall Very nice website, thanks for all its info.

I'm working on purchasing a home with a hangar. The existing door is home-made and inadequate. I would like get a ball park estimate on replacement. I'm not sure which door I would prefer and also unsure of the structure but I know its all wood (stick built) and I want fast opening bifold doors.

65

I have a schweiss door with the straps ( SN#16729). It has the older cable/pulley latching system. Can this older door system be upgraded to the new cable latching system and will it result in a fast opening and zero maintenance door? If so, what approximate cost?

66

As an engineer that will likely be designing buildings w/ your doors in them, I have a few questions about the latch strap system, will the straps give me faster opening doors? Your website states that the latch straps will secure the door in the open position. Will the straps support the entire door weight? What is the resultant tension in the strap? Will this force be reported along with the other forces applied to the building by the door? It appears the latch strap is attached to the building column at or near mid-height of the door. The resulting torsion could be a concern that would need to be considered in the design of the column and how fast the bifold door will open. Thank you for your time.

67
