Heavy industry

Built for tough work in the most demanding conditions, our entrance solutions and equipment keep your operations running smoothly and safely. For over 30 years, we’ve helped steel mills, automotive plants, cement plants, mines and similar applications fulfil the unique needs of heavy industry.

Up to the challenge

The extremely dirty, dusty and windy environments often associated with heavy industry demand durable, reliable solutions. By minimizing moving parts and adding innovative safety features, we’ve designed our doors to last for years of continuous operation and heavy traffic.  We can accommodate virtually any size opening and wind pressure as well as frequent vehicular traffic with high-speed operations.

To protect your most valuable assets – the people who work on site – we’ve included safety measures like a fail-safe that reverses automatically in the case of any contact, and a continuous wind lock to guard against wind and debris. Our industry-leading product warrantees provide additional peace of mind and assure long-term operation.

Solutions in manufacturing

  • Perimeter and Grounds Security

    The first line of safety for an industrial or utilities facility is the physical barrier that controls, and limits, access to the grounds. This can include fencing, gates and security cameras. Access control systems that allow for remote monitoring from a central location ensure that all visitor access is controlled.

  • Weather and Environment Resistance

    From electromechanical locking systems to mechanical locks and padlocks, products and solutions need to be able to withstand snow and ice, wind, water, heat, humidity and salt corrosion.

  • Safety Lockout of Machinery

    Safety lockout padlocks ensure machinery and vehicles are not operated during maintenance operations, avoiding accidents. 

  • Remote Access Control Solutions

    Online access control solutions allow for remote monitoring from a central location, allowing access and connecting functions such as temperature and humidity monitoring.

  • Emergency Exits

    An emergency exit or panic exit device must allow fast and efficient evacuation during emergency circumstances, and but still remain an important part of the building’s primary security by restricting access or ensuring entry at all other times. Stringent requirements for emergency evacuation and fire safety mean there is a high demand for security and steel doors.
