Maximum flexibility with new moveable centre support from Hörmann UK

Hörmann UK, market leaders in the design and supply of industrial doors and loading systems, have introduced a new, innovative movable centre support for its industrial sectional doors. The centre support can be used to connect up to three industrial sectional doors, providing a flexible option to create large openings of up to 30m.

The new centre support is robust yet lightweight and can be quickly and easily pushed to the side on a low-friction track which is installed behind the lintel. This provides operators with complete flexibility by allowing for individual door opening or, if required, the entire opening can be opened to allow clear passage across its complete width.

For use on Hörmann industrial sectional doors with a H track application, the moveable support is particularly suited for installations where large openings are commonly required, such as transport facilities, airports, large-scale manufacturing, fitting and service bays.

Phil Thorpe, Industrial Division Manager at Hörmann UK comments, “At Hörmann we are committed to providing the market with a comprehensive range of industrial doors which consistently offer high quality materials, safe and secure operation, long life, and excellent thermal performance. The introduction of the moveable centre support for our industrial sectional doors is an innovation that further enhances the range and follows on from the introduction of our Series 60, which when fitted with our WA 500 FU operator can achieve market beating opening/closing speeds of 1 m/s.

The moveable centre support has been designed to specifically provide operators with maximum flexibility and also offers developers the opportunity to build more adaptable, cost-effective facilities.”
