High-Performance Door Applications

Food and Beverage

When it comes to door openings in food and beverage environments, controlling temperature differential between rooms while accommodating busy traffic areas are just a couple of the biggest challenges.  It stands to reason that door openings must open and close as quickly as possible and remain closed as much as possible to maintain desired temperatures.  High-performance doors are essential in these environments.

Whether it’s a cooler, freezer, blast freezer, or dock, find your solutions from a single source – Hörmann.

Speed-Commander™ 1400 SEL19 Cool-Master

This is the ideal cooler door for energy conscious, 24/7/365 applications in agricultural, medical, and distribution facilities.  Fast operating speeds allow for a constant flow of traffic without compromising energy control and efficiency.  An advanced 3 mm thick gray foam panel material maintains flexibility to +33 degrees F and helps to keep condensation to a minimum in cooler to ambient areas.  For added efficiency, an optional unheated air curtain is available.

Speed-Commander™ 1400 SEL19 Food-Master

The Food-Master design allows you to select only the stainless steel options your application requires.  Able to conform with all industry requirements, the following components are available in stainless steel, making it possible to conveniently build a Food-Master door without paying for unnecessary stainless options:  Roll tube / shaft, door / motor cover, guide tracks and all hardware.  Two effective panel materials are available on the Food-Master. 

CHILLFAST High-Performance Freezer Door

The CHILLFAST door system is a unique solution for cold rooms, chillrooms and freezers.  Extremely fast operating speeds minimize temperature loss in cold spaces by reducing the amount of time the door is open.  Remaining flexible in extreme temperatures down to -22°F, the unique door curtain is made of 22 ounce reinforced vinyl exterior layers, dual reflective foil layers, sealed air bubble insulation with patented CurtainLoks™.  A heated soft bottom edge releases upon accidental impact and assists proper sealing on uneven floors. The aluminum guide tracks are heated and corrosion resistant.  A pre-assembled thermal break layer between the guide tracks and the wall/floor, minimizes cold conduction and prevents ice build-up.

Iso Speed Cold

Its 100 mm (3.9”) thick sections include thermal breaks, which provide excellent insulation U-factor of 0.50 W/(m²K).  Combine these extremely insulated sections with a fast opening speed up to 80 inches per second, and achieving efficient operations will be one less thing to worry about.  In addition to extreme efficiency, two track configurations are available for ease in accommodating tricky refrigerated and cold storage applications.  The Iso Speed Cold is so versatile it may be specified in a variety of cold storage applications.

HPP Impact Traffic Door

As a lower cost alternative for coolers, wash down, and food production environments with moderate pedestrian and / or motorized traffic, consider the HPP impact traffic door. Constructed of all stainless steel hardware and a PE 500 polyethylene panel material, it’s also USDA / FDA / EU compliant and has a 10-year warranty. Best of all, guesswork is eliminated since installation profiles are included to match the type of wall construction where the door will be installed.

Blast Freezers

For harsh, demanding blast freezer environments, choose from one of our rugged rubber doors based on the amount of traffic moving through the door opening. All models come with a rubber curtain that is extremely durable and remains flexible to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. Frost forming on the curtain simply breaks off as the door rolls up, allowing the door to operate reliably with little to no maintenance.

HD-SD 3050 High-Speed Rubber Door

For extremely busy locations, rather than waiting for a conventional sliding freezer door to open, the HD-SD 3050 opens at nearly 4 feet per second, maximizing efficient material handling and minimizing employee wait time.

HD-CD 3025 Rubber Door

With an opening speed up to nearly 2 feet per second, the HD-CD 3025 accommodates busy locations with moderate amounts of traffic.

HD-SD 3020 Economy Rubber Door

The HD-SD 3020 economy model with an opening speed of up to 18 inches per second, effectively gets the job done in door openings that will be cycled a few times per hour.

HD-M 1500 Manual Rubber Door

For door openings that will have just a few cycles a day, the HD-M 1500 manually operated rubber door is the most economical solution.

HDD Heavy-Duty Rubber Dock Door

Ideal for no nonsense dock areas in distribution, commercial, and manufacturing applications, the HDD provides fast and reliable 4.5:1 manual chain hoist operation and impact release performance. Suitable for applications up to 10 feet wide and 12 feet high, the in-board spring assembly has a 25,000 cycle rating, which easily accommodates low cycle door openings.
