Choosing the right workshop door can have a major impact on the functionality, efficiency and appearance of your car dealership. Traditional workshop doors have long been the standard, but innovative alternatives such as the Compact door offer significant advantages. In this blog, we compare traditional workshop doors with the Compact door and show why the Compact door is often the better choice.
Space optimisation: Get the most out of your workshop
A major disadvantage of traditional workshop doors is that they often take up space at the ceiling. This can be disruptive when installing lifting bridges or other essential installations, such as compressed air pipes and flue pipes. The Compact door uses a folding system that folds up without the need for ceiling rails. This leaves the entire ceiling space free, allowing you to:
- Lifts in the most optimal places.
- Have freedom to position pipes and installations as you wish. With the Compact door, you not only utilise the floor but also the full height of your workshop, which is especially useful for larger vehicles.
Representative appearance: A professional workshop
The appearance of your workshop is an important business card for your company. Traditional doors often have a functional but boring design, while the Compact door is not only functional, but also aesthetically appealing. With a clean finish that looks presentable both inside and outside, the Compact door contributes to a professional appearance. Moreover, the door can be seamlessly integrated into your showroom or other parts of your building, giving your premises a unified and modern look.
Maintenance: less worry, more savings
Traditional doors often use balance springs, which require regular maintenance and replacement. This leads to higher maintenance costs and possible downtime of your workshop. The Compact door is designed without balance springs, which means fewer wear parts. With a lifetime of around 100,000 cycles, this door is a low-maintenance and durable solution. This not only saves time and money, but also increases the reliability of your workshop.
More advantages of the Compact door
Besides space optimisation, appearance and maintenance benefits, the Compact door offers further practical advantages:
- Easy replacement of older doors: The compact footprint makes it easy to install the Compact door, even in existing premises.
- Insulation and energy savings: The door offers excellent insulation, maintaining the temperature in your workshop. This contributes to comfort and lower energy costs. Optional wicket door for easy access.
- Sustainable and safe design: The Compact door has an automatic locking system and meets high safety standards. Its durable design makes this door a future-proof investment.
- Tailor-made: The Compact door is fully customised to your specific needs and dimensions to perfectly fit your workshop.
