Shelter Doors

Doors are a common area of customization for Openchannelflow Fiberglass Equipment Shelters.  From multiple single doors to double doors and more, Openchannelflow has you covered.  

 

Standard Door

The standard door for Openchannelflow equipment shelters is an outward opening 3068 single door.  

• 30 - representing 3-feet 0-inches wide
• 68 - representing 6-feet 8-inches high

The door is mounted with (2) stainless steel strap hinges and is recessed in a full perimeter molded door frame.  By extending the frame around the full door perimeter, we can ensure that the door frame does not twist or wrack during shipment or installation (potentially binding the door in the frame).  Also, a full perimeter door frame allows the door to be sealed so that it meets NEMA 3R requirements.

At the top, each door is provided with a industrial duty overhead door closer / stop.  The closer is rated for windy applications and high cycle times and provides significantly improve usability over the stop-chains our competitors use!

The door is secured with a single-point stainless steel locked ball knob - athough a variety of other knob / security options are available.

 

Single Door Options

In addition to our standard 3068 single door, Openchannelflow also offers:  2668, 3068, 3668, and 4068 single doors. These sizes can be either upgrades from the standard 3068 door or can be addition to the standard door.  Additionally, these different door sizes can be pair with either alike or dissimlar door sizes to creat double doors. Normally the doors are single piece affairs, but Dutch (split) construction is also available.

Additional custom size doors are also available - typically with extended heights.  If these sizes don't cover your needs, Openchannelflow can manufacture custom sized doors - just drop us a line. 

 

Double Door Options

For greater access, Openchannelflow also offers double doors - as upgrades or additional assemblies.  Double doors are provided with cane bolts to hold the passive door closed and an astragal between the doors to keep the shelter weathertight.

Double doors can be double 3068 doors (standard) or can use any of our other single door sizes...there's no need for the two doors to even be the same width!

 

Roll-Up / Roll-Back Doors

In space constrained applications where there isn't enough room for a standard door to open, Openchannelflow offers a number of different rolling door options.  These doors can be roll-up (drum mounted above the door) or roll-back (think garage door) styles.  Depending upon the door, heavy duty, insulated, and weatherproof options are available for these doors.

 

Door Accessories

Many times, the door opening itself is only part of the customization needed.  Openchannelflow offers a number of different security / usability options for our shelter doors, including:
