EFAFLEX doors have been helping companies across various industries achieve better results for nearly half a century through energy savings and accelerated logistics flows. Thanks to their unique winding system, high-quality materials, and precise craftsmanship, these doors have become a symbol of speed and reliability. Due to these advantages, you will find EFAFLEX doors in many locations and operations. The EFAFLEX portfolio also includes doors installed in parking garages, which are an integral part of parking systems.
Special Series for Parking Garages
The demand for fast and reliable door systems is growing, and parking areas are no exception. To meet the needs of these locations, engineers have developed a special type series designated EFA-SST®-PS (Parking System). These doors consist of a suspension made from aluminum slats 108 mm high, which can be solid, glazed, or ventilated. Since it is also a patented touchless winding of the door leaf into a spiral, there is no mechanical scratching of the slats, ensuring high opening/closing speed, reliability, and long lifespan. Thanks to these parameters, designers and architects have an excellent and, most importantly, reliable helper for closing entrances.
Safety First
All EFAFLEX doors must meet strict safety requirements. To prevent collisions with vehicles or persons, the doors for parking systems are equipped with a safety light curtain in combination with a contact strip at the bottom edge of the door leaf. They can also be equipped with a light grid that is at the level of the door leaf. All of this is in accordance with the applicable standard ČSN EN 13241+A2 (functionality of doors) and others. The EFA-TRONIC control unit, which includes a frequency converter, ensures flawless communication with superior MaR systems, PLC-controlled systems, and automatic barriers along with other safety features. The EFA-SST®-PS doors can be equipped with an electromagnetic lock that prevents unwanted opening of the door when, for example, there is no pallet in a safe position for both cars and, above all, for people, thus preventing free fall into the elevator shaft.
When Speed Matters
EFA-SST® PS doors are the ideal solution for securing buildings. They open at an exceptional speed of up to 2 m/s and close immediately after a vehicle passes through. This prevents unwanted entry of persons and vehicles into buildings and parking areas. Particularly for hotels, banks, offices, parking lots, underground garages, and other public facilities, stable yet fast doors help enhance security in entry and exit areas.
Quiet Operation for Tenants' Peace
In addition to speed and safety, another significant benefit is the quiet operation of the doors. This is especially appreciated by residents of apartment buildings where EFAFLEX doors secure the entrance. Frequent opening and closing will not disturb you, even if you have bedroom or children's room windows above the exit. The reason is the special anchoring of the doors using silent blocks or anti-noise dowels that prevent the transmission of vibrations to structural components. All these advantages are guaranteed by EFAFLEX for an impressive 200 thousand opening cycles per year. When converted to a daily basis, this amounts to hundreds of opening cycles every day, which the doors handle effortlessly. This significantly exceeds the performance of standard garage doors, which are designed for only a few opening cycles per day.
Doors Tailored to Your Needs
All doors are space-saving and manufactured to measure. They can be easily installed even with minimal space in the lintel or at the side frames. Investors can also choose the door design and color from a wide range of RAL colors, ensuring that the doors match the building. An advantage is that the doors can be custom-made to a unique design at the client's request so that they fit into any environment, including historical architecture. The doors are also highly durable and secured against unwanted opening. Tenants thus have the assurance that their vehicles and premises are safe.
