The right industrial door for every application and industry.

Every industry sets different priorities. While hygiene and temperature separation are the focus in the food industry, availability and speed of industrial doors are crucial in logistics. In explosion-hazard zones, on the other hand, the strictest safety regulations apply, all of which have a direct impact on the design of the doors. Solutions from EFAFLEX contribute to the specific conditions of various industries and areas of application. We develop and implement high-speed industrial doors that not only meet your requirements, but actively improve your operations.

Energy efficiency

With the EFA-SST®, EFAFLEX offers the world’s first high-speed door with thermally separated insulating laths as standard. Depending on the door size, insulation values of up to 0.54 W/m²K can be achieved. This allows you to reduce heat loss, actively save energy, and optimize operating costs—especially in temperature-controlled production environments, cooling and storage areas, and energy-intensive industries such as the food, pharmaceutical, or chemical sectors.

Frequently asked questions about industrial doors for every industry and application

What are industrial doors? Open

Industrial doors are robust, functional doors specifically designed for use in commercial and industrial environments. They serve not only as access control but also meet requirements for safety, energy efficiency, speed, and durability. Depending on the area of application, different types such as roll-up doors or folding doors are used. As a manufacturer of industrial doors, EFAFLEX offers high-quality high-speed doors that stand out for their durability, high opening speeds, and individual adaptability. Industrial doors are a key component of efficient logistics and production processes.

 

In which industries are industrial doors used? Open

Industrial doors are used in nearly all industries – from mechanical engineering and the food industry to logistics and the pharmaceutical sector. They are in demand wherever reliability, safety, and high cycle rates are critical to operations. EFAFLEX supplies companies in over 74 countries with custom-made industrial doors that are optimally tailored to the specific requirements of each industry. Even specialized applications such as cleanrooms or explosion-hazard areas benefit from individually designed door solutions.

What types of industrial doors does EFAFLEX offer for different industries? Open

EFAFLEX offers a wide range of high-speed industrial doors, including spiral doors, roll-up doors, folding doors, and special doors for explosion protection or cleanroom technology. All industrial doors are individually configurable – in various dimensions, materials, and versions (for example, with vision panels or thermal insulation). Depending on the application, products from different series are available, such as the EFA-SST® Therm for high insulation values or the EFA-STR® Flex for maximum speed. This way, companies receive made-to-measure industrial doors – precisely tailored to their requirements.

Are industrial doors sectional doors? Open

Sectional doors are part of the industrial door category, but they represent only one of several design types within this product group. The term “industrial door” encompasses a wide range of door types specifically developed for use in commercial and industrial environments. These include roll-up doors, folding doors, spiral doors – and also sectional doors. Sectional doors consist of individual, horizontally arranged sections that are pushed under the hall ceiling when opened. In certain applications, they have limitations – for example, in terms of speed or maintenance requirements. That’s why EFAFLEX deliberately relies on alternative door technologies, such as the high-speed spiral door technology we invented or innovative roll-up doors, which meet significantly higher standards in terms of efficiency, durability, and safety.

What is the difference between roll-up door, folding door, and sectional door in industrial doors? Open

Roll-up doors wind compactly onto a winding shaft, are space-saving, and particularly suitable for indoor use. Folding doors open to the side and are ideal for large door openings or areas with limited space above. Sectional doors consist of several horizontal segments that slide under the ceiling when opened. They offer good insulation values but are mechanically more complex. EFAFLEX offers alternative solutions in the form of high-speed spiral, folding, and roll-up doors that combine the advantages of traditional door types with state-of-the-art technology. This results in functional industrial doors designed to meet the highest demands.

How do I find the right industrial door for my application? Open

With the EFAFLEX product finder, you can find the right industrial door for your application in just a few clicks. Alternatively, our experts are happy to advise you personally – on-site, by phone, or digitally. Factors such as door size, installation situation, frequency of use, temperature requirements, or safety standards play a central role. EFAFLEX develops custom-made industrial doors tailored to individual needs – perfectly aligned with your industry, your processes, and your environment.

Can EFAFLEX industrial doors also be used in explosion-protected areas? Open

Yes, EFAFLEX also offers special industrial doors for explosion-hazard areas in accordance with the ATEX directive. The EX Series doors are designed for Zones 1, 2, 21, and 22 and meet the highest safety standards. These special industrial doors are used in industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food processing. EFAFLEX is an experienced manufacturer for such applications and develops solutions that are not only safe but also efficient and durable.

What advantages do custom-made industrial doors offer compared to standard solutions? Open

Custom-made industrial doors offer destinctive advantages: they adapt precisely to structural conditions and operational workflows. As a result, they increase efficiency, improve safety, and minimize energy loss. Standard solutions often reach their limits when faced with special requirements – for example, unusual dimensions, specific temperature zones, or high opening frequencies. That’s why EFAFLEX industrial doors provide real added value compared to generic industrial solutions and of standard sizes.

How Much Do Industrial Doors Cost and Is There a Price List? Open

The prices for industrial doors depend on various factors: door size, features, design, and individual requirements. Before purchasing an industrial door, EFAFLEX will provide you with a customized quote upon request – transparent and fair. A general price list for industrial doors is not practical due to the wide range of configuration options. However, our sales team will be happy to advise you on current costs and help you find a cost-effective solution.

How does the installation of an EFAFLEX industrial door work? Open

Installation is carried out by qualified EFAFLEX service technicians or certified partner companies. All components – from the door drive to the control system – are professionally installed and tested. Thanks to factory pre-assembly of many parts, on-site installation time is significantly reduced. Individual requirements, such as a slat curtain or special drive systems for industrial doors, can also be integrated depending on the product. This ensures a smooth and safe installation process.

Does EFAFLEX also perform repairs and maintenance on existing industrial doors? Open

Our services don’t end after the sale of our industrial doors – they begin well before that: EFAFLEX offers comprehensive service for industrial doors, including planning and consultation as well as repairs, regular maintenance, and more. Our service technicians are specially trained and operate both across Germany and internationally. Whether roll-up doors, folding doors, or spiral doors – we keep your doors in top condition and minimize downtime. Spare parts for industrial doors are also available at short notice.

Who is authorized to inspect industrial doors? Open

According to the Operational Safety Ordinance, industrial doors must be regularly inspected by qualified persons. These individuals possess the necessary expertise to assess safety systems and mechanical components. EFAFLEX provides this service through its own certified service technicians – reliable, documented, and compliant with legal regulations. This ensures that you meet all mandatory inspection requirements and guarantee maximum operational safety for your industrial doors.
