Improve Safety and Efficiency at Mine Sites

Extracting raw materials from the earth is dangerous business.  Protecting the workers and the environment is critical during all mining operations.  One way to enhance safety and protect the surrounding environment is to make sure the right doors are installed in crusher buildings, truck shops, wash bays and pellet plants.

Dependable, Strong and Safe

Tough mining conditions demand strong and safe entrance doors at all openings.  A door must stand tough in dirty, gritty and corrosive environments.  A premium door needs to be corrosive-resistant and strong enough to handle the demands of daily mining operations.  A door that is constantly breaking down will cost your operation a lot of unnecessary expense.

Steel Doors Are Out

The use of big expansive steel doors is a thing of the past.  Rolling steel doors are expensive and corrode quickly.  In addition, they need continuous repair and replacement.  Steel doors have a very short service life and can be a safety hazard. What you need at mining door openings are MAXDoors – the vertical fabric lift door that fits in less space and requires no additional building modifications.  In addition, a fabric door allows more natural sunlight into the building which greatly improves safety inside the building.

Controlling Dust and Dirt

MAXDoors operate at a high speed and cut down on dust and dirt.  Even on crusher buildings where debris is flying, our door is made with dual-layer fabric and provides a tight seal when closed.

Made in the USA, MAXDoor is a supplier to mining sites throughout North America.

Rolling Steel Doors Are Out – MAXDoor Is In!!

MAXDoor is an American-owned, Michigan-based door manufacturing company with expertise in custom industrial vertical lift fabric doors. Rolling steel doors were never designed for high speed or high cycle daily door openings. Originally, these doors were intended to be used for security and fire protection.  Well, things have changed, and the rolling steel door no longer meets the needs of large industrial operations.  MAXDoor has a better and more cost-effective solution for your door needs.

MAXDoor vs. Rolling Steel Doors

Let’s compare a MAXDoor to a rolling steel door:

  • STRENGTH – MAXDoors are 2-5 times stronger than steel doors and maintains its strength in doors from 10 feet to 100 feet.
  • SPEED – MAXDoors operate a high speed (up to 60” per second), however, rolling steel doors were never designed for high cycle operations.
  • WIND LOAD – MAXDoors have dual-layer fabric door panels with internal traveling beams providing the highest wind load resistance. The door is significant in a building’s ability to withstand high winds because it often closes the largest opening on a building. A rolling door is subject to either being blown into the building or pulled out of the opening.
  • MAINTENANCE – MAXDoors save our customers significantly on the cost of downtime, maintenance, and repair. With a simple design, the horizontal beams are quickly put back in place should a collision occur.  Rolling steel doors are notorious for requiring constant costly repairs.  Think of the money saved by not having to call a service technician for a costly door repair.
  • SAFETY – MAXDoors have a lifting belt and horizontal beam design that has proven to improve safety concerns when hit by forklifts or dump trucks. A free-falling rolling steel door can weigh as much as half a ton and cause considerable damage to workers and expensive equipment should the system fail.
  • SERVICE LIFE – MAXDoor has a service life of 20-25 years with very little maintenance.  A rolling steel door with costly maintenance and repairs will last 5-10 years.

It’s time to put a tough door in place…It’s time for a MAXDoor.
