Indoor - High Speed Industrial Doors
High speed doors for indoor use are designed to be mounted inside a building. This can be in a passageway between rooms or on the inside of an exterior wall. Which door is most suitable for your situation depends on many factors. Firstly, the size and wind pressure in the passageway. Often, smaller spaces will have less wind pressure than between large halls or in an airlock.
