As area farmers work tirelessly to get their crops out of the fields, The Door People are reminded how much use shop overhead doors and operators are encountering this time of year. Local farmers can count on Overhead Door Company of Olmsted County to service their existing commercial overhead doors and operators. If you happen to be a shop owner who has a sliding door that gives you trouble when you open and close it, we can help. We have the ability to replace that sliding door with a bi-fold door that is built and equipped to handle regular operation and withstand winds, which we certainly encounter in our area. Common frustrations with these doors include them getting off track which results in them getting stuck, poor insulation, lack of sealing properly at the bottom which results in heat loss and can allow water, snow and ice in and build up. It also allows critters to enter your building!
Overhead Door Company installs, services and works with Hi-Fold Door Corporation’s bi-folding doors, a company that has been around since 1977 and is located here in the Midwest in River Falls, Wisconsin. These strong, rugged bi-fold doors provide 12-24 inches more door opening clearance than any other bi-fold on the market. So you’ll have more room for your equipment. Here are some of the advantages of the hi-fold bi-folding door:
- Double-strength center hinge design eliminates sagging
- Patented auxiliary arms allow higher opening clearance and lower mount points
- Strong, welded steel frame and trusses withstand high winds and maximize the life of your door
- Open door provides a canopy to protect against sun and rain
- When closed, the sturdy jamb latch and rugged bottom seal keep intruders and extreme weather out
We also love the fact that Hi-Fold Door Corporation has a simple and comprehensive three-year warranty with no hidden exclusions. There are no surprises. It simply covers every part. Satisfaction guaranteed. The Door People at Overhead Door Company have a one-year warranty on installation.
Thermacore® AP 850 sectional door
Overhead Door Company also has expertise replacing existing overhead doors with high-performing insulated sectional doors as seen pictured above. For example, we have a 3-inch commercial door known as the Thermacore® AP 850 sectional door. It is rated one of the strongest and most thermally efficient doors on the market. This commercial overhead door is constructed with a patent pending dual-barrier, tongue-and-groove joint profile that creates a virtually impenetrable path for air leakage and infiltration between door sections, and PVC thermal breaks that reduce heat and cold transfer from front to back of the sections. This 3-inch thick door is the ideal choice for thermal protection against heat or cold in heavy duty applications, including: agricultural buildings, food and beverage storage facilities, pharmaceutical facilities, climate controlled facilities, industrial manufacturing facilities, government facilities, and shipping and receiving docks.
So farmers, please let us know if we can help you with replacing an existing commercial door or operator, or service the ones that you have after this busy season.
