Maximize safety and minimize machine downtime between processes—these doors stop dangerous machinery from running when they’re open, and close in just seconds with the press of a button. Compared to other machine guard doors, they’re faster, taking only two seconds to raise and lower. They also require less floor space than light curtains because they don’t require safety zones. A safety interlock switch signals your programmable logic controller (PLC) to shut off equipment as soon as the door starts to open. Once the door is fully closed, it sends a signal to restart your machine. They have two photocell sensors for full safety coverage. If interrupted, the door will stop and reverse to the fully open position. Unlike light curtains, these doors function as a physical barrier between hazardous equipment and personnel. They’re made of vinyl fabric to keep projectiles, fluid splatter, sparks, and other machine hazards contained.

Combine these doors with machine guard panels (not included) or install them into an existing system to create a complete barrier around machinery. They have aluminum side frames that mount directly to the floor to keep them anchored in place. You can easily access parts for maintenance by removing the cover on the side panels.

In the event of a power outage, open them manually using a hand crank. These doors are only for use indoors.

Both doors have an 8’ tall opening height to accommodate personnel. Doors with an 8’ opening width can accommodate forklifts.
