High Speed Roll Up Door Case Study
Location: South Wales
Sector: Manufacturing
Products Used: SRT ECO 274 (high-speed roll up)
Who is the client?
This is a returning customer to EFAFLEX who specialise in the global provision of critical sealing and connector solutions primarily within the oil and gas industry. Established for over 170 years originally in Germany, the Group now incorporates flag ship brands with locations including Norway, UAE, and Canada.
What fast action warehouse door did they choose?
We were delighted to revisit their South Wales hub to look at replacing their existing steel manual doors with fast action automatic alternatives.
Our local Business Development Manager visited in June 2023 and made her recommendation for 5 x SRT ECO doors to be installed. This fast action door is extremely economical and uses a space saving design making it ideal for a multitude of uses; including the replacement of older slower less durable roller shutters.
What benefits will this high -speed industrial warehouse deliver?
The EFA-SRT® ECO is a popular choice. Not only does it fulfil the economical end of the market, but pre structural preparations on site are not always required, making it quicker and easier to install.
What are the key benefits of this specific door?
This door option is ideal for materials handling scenarios, where speed and safety are essential. You will note the inclusion of a large viewing panel in the centre of the door which not only allows daylight to flood the working environment but creates a clear line of sight for busy two-way traffic areas.
It combines the best of EFAFLEX; design and functionality, delivering an excellent price -performance ratio.
Some key features include;
- Ideal for materials-handling technology
- Space-saving design
- Excellent price-performance ratio
- Opening up to 2.0 m/s

Were there any specific requirements from this project?
This was a straightforward project to replace a manual steel door, with our high-speed automatic alternative that will bring many operational benefits to this client.
