Industrial high-speed doors
Optimise traffic flow and ensure insulation with high-performance systems
Alapont Global industrial high-speed doors are the ideal solution for separating environments with continuous goods flow. If you need to ensure optimum insulation in warehouses, laboratories or plants with intensive traffic, our models provide the reliability your operation demands.
They are designed to improve logistics efficiency and maintain strict hygienic conditions, adapting safely to any production environment while complying with the most demanding standards in the industrial sector.
Models of high-speed industrial doors
We offer a wide range of models designed to meet your specific operational requirements in any production plant.
High-speed self-repairing doors
High-speed self-repairing doors are suitable for indoor and outdoor use and feature a self-repairing function: if the curtain is hit and comes out of the guides, it automatically re-inserts itself without damage.
Features:
High-speed roll-up doors
High-speed roll-up doors are designed for use in climate-controlled indoor areas with positive temperatures ranging from 5 to +80ºC.
High wind resistance:
Double-curtain high-speed doors
Double-curtain high-speed doors are designed for environments with temperatures down to -30°C, making them ideal for cold rooms and freezing tunnels.
Features:
Safety measures:
Anti-condensation and anti-icing system
High-speed stacking doors
High-speed stacking doors are designed for indoor and outdoor use, with resistance to abrasion, discolouration and wind loads of class 2 and 3. M2 fire-retardant certified.
Features:
Operation and use of industrial high-speed doors
1
Automatic detection and activation
The system detects the operator or vehicle by means of radars or induction loops embedded in the floor. This enables continuous flow and eliminates downtime, as there is no need to get out of the vehicle.
2
High-speed motorised opening
Once activated, the high-performance motor raises the curtain at speeds of up to 2.5 m/s. You only need to maintain a constant speed; the passage will be fully clear before you arrive.
3
Safe passage with monitoring
While you pass through, a photocell curtain monitors the area. If an obstacle is detected, closing is instantly blocked. The system proactively safeguards the integrity of your personnel.
4
Timed closing and sealing
After passage, the door automatically lowers to restore thermal insulation. In self-repairing systems, any accidental impact is resolved automatically, avoiding service calls and production downtime.
Benefits and operational return
Energy savings
Reduces thermal leakage and HVAC costs by closing the opening within seconds.
Logistics flow
Optimises forklift traffic by eliminating unnecessary waiting times and stoppages.
Low wear
System designed for intensive cycles, reducing long-term repair costs.
Controlled hygiene
Effective barrier against dust and pests, essential for complying with sanitary regulations.
Fewer accidents
Advanced sensors prevent collisions, protecting personnel and goods.

Frequently asked questions
-
What type of high-speed door do I need for my operation?
It depends on whether the door will operate indoors or outdoors, the required insulation level, the type of traffic, and environmental conditions. The correct choice must match the actual function of the opening and the expected usage intensity.
-
What type of traffic is it designed for?
High-speed doors can be designed for pedestrian traffic, forklifts, industrial vehicles, or mixed traffic, so it is important to define from the outset who will use the access point and how.
-
How many opening and closing cycles per day can it withstand?
The cycle capacity depends on the model, automation system, and component quality, so it is recommended to choose a door designed for the real frequency of use in the installation.
-
What opening speed do I really need?
The speed should be adapted to workflow needs, as faster opening helps improve traffic flow and reduces temperature loss in climate-controlled areas.
-
Will it help me maintain indoor temperature more effectively?
Yes, a high-speed door helps maintain indoor temperature more effectively by reducing opening time and improving separation between environments.
-
Is it suitable for cold storage, clean rooms, or the food industry?
Yes, it is highly suitable for these environments, as it enables better environmental control and separation of areas with different thermal or hygiene requirements.
-
What level of safety does it provide?
It generally includes systems such as photocells, obstacle detection, and safety devices to protect people, vehicles, and goods during daily operation.
-
Can it be automated or integrated with sensors?
Yes, high-speed doors can be integrated with automatic activation systems such as sensors, radars, push buttons, or access control systems adapted to operational needs.
-
What installation requirements does it have?
Installation must be adapted to the available opening, building structure, and operational requirements, and is typically performed by specialised technicians.
-
Can it be installed in an existing building or opening?
Yes, in many cases it can be installed in existing openings, provided that dimensions and site conditions are compatible with the selected model.
-
What documentation or standards must it comply with?
The door must comply with applicable regulations and, in the case of industrial automatic doors, include CE marking and the required technical documentation.
-
How much does a high-speed door cost and what affects the price?
The price depends on size, door type, automation level, speed, safety features, materials, and installation conditions, so it must be evaluated on a project-by-project basis.
-
Which is more cost-effective: a high-speed door or a sectional door?
It depends on the application: high-speed doors are usually better for high-frequency use and environmental separation, while sectional doors are more suitable for external closure and robustness.
-
How does a double-curtain high-speed door prevent ice formation?
Hot air is introduced between the two curtains through a lower duct and recirculated in a closed loop. A lower extractor pulls air across the entire area, while the lintel and side posts are fully insulated and heated. This system keeps humidity low during openings, preventing condensation and ice formation.
