In recent years, we have seen various styles of high-speed doors installed at the entrances and exits of underground parking garages. These high-speed doors mainly fall into two categories: high-speed spiral doors and PVC stacking doors. So, what are the benefits of installing high-speed doors in underground garages?

Benefits of High-Speed Spiral Doors

Let's first look at high-speed spiral doors for underground garages. These doors excel in providing excellent separation, helping to keep the underground garage environment clean, and reducing property management costs. Our high-speed spiral doors also have outstanding wind resistance, meet the National Standard Level 6, and can withstand level 12 gale-force winds. They can prevent water and snow from flooding into the garage during harsh weather conditions like rain and snow.

In terms of insulation, high-speed spiral doors play a crucial role, especially in northern and northwestern regions. During winter, underground garages require constant heating, and installing high-speed doors can reduce heat loss and prevent water pipes from freezing, enhancing property management efficiency.

Regarding safety, high-speed doors effectively prevent unauthorized entry into the underground garage, reducing the risk of potential accidents between people and vehicles. They also offer excellent protection for cars.

Benefits of PVC Stacking Doors

Now, let's consider PVC stacking doors. Although the door curtain of a PVC stacking door is made of industrial PVC fabric, which mainly offers wind resistance and separation, it falls short compared to the aluminum alloy panels filled with polyurethane foam used in high-speed spiral doors. PVC stacking doors have limitations in wind resistance and insulation.

Regarding operational speed, PVC stacking doors can only achieve speeds of about 0.8m/s, whereas high-speed spiral doors can reach up to 2m/s. Therefore, high-speed spiral doors can better maintain smooth entry and exit in underground garages with high traffic.

When selecting a high-speed door for an underground garage, it is essential to consider environmental conditions and specific requirements. Although high-speed spiral doors outperform PVC stacking doors in various aspects, they are also slightly more expensive. However, from a cost-performance perspective, high-speed spiral doors offer better value.

Conclusion

Consider the environment and specific needs when choosing a high-speed door for an underground parking garage. While high-speed spiral doors offer superior performance, they are slightly more expensive than PVC stacking doors. However, high-speed spiral doors have a clear advantage in terms of cost performance.
