Doorways Inc. in Gulfport, MS, has been a leader in commercial and industrial door solutions for nearly four decades. Among its top offerings are Traffic Impact Doors, designed to withstand the rigors of busy environments while maintaining efficiency and safety.
What are Traffic Impact Doors?
These rugged doors are ideal for high-traffic areas in warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities along the Gulf Coast. They’re built to take a beating from forklifts, pallet jacks, and other heavy equipment without compromising functionality. The doors’ durable construction includes impact-resistant materials that can handle collisions without cracking or breaking, reducing downtime and repair costs.
What sets Doorways Inc.’s Traffic Impact Doors apart is their attention to local needs. The humid Gulfport climate can wreak havoc on lesser doors, but these are designed with corrosion-resistant hardware and seals that stand up to moisture. They’re also engineered to withstand the occasional hurricane-force winds that Mississippi’s coast experiences.
Energy efficiency is another key feature. When closed, the doors create a tight seal, helping to maintain temperature control in climate-sensitive areas. It is particularly crucial for businesses dealing with perishable goods or those looking to cut down on HVAC costs in the sweltering Gulf summers.
Safety is paramount in any industrial setting; these doors don’t disappoint. They’re equipped with large vision panels for improved visibility, reducing the risk of accidents at busy intersections. Some models also feature breakaway capabilities, allowing them to pop out of their tracks upon impact and easily reset, preventing damage to both the door and the vehicle.
Doorways Inc. offers a range of customization options to suit specific needs. Whether it’s a particular color to match company branding, special sizing for unique openings, or specific insulation requirements, their team works closely with clients to provide tailored solutions.
