Rapid Roll® Doors are designed to open at speeds up to 10' per second (3 meters/ sec.). This helps save companies money by keeping traffic flowing and goods moving twenty-four hours a day.

Rapid Roll® and Rapid FoldTM Doors are engineered to be virtually maintenance free. Unlike conventional doors, they do not use costly chains or sprockets. There are also fewer moving parts eliminating mechanical problems

 

At the heart of the Rapid Roll® door is the panel material. It must be durable enough to withstand even the toughest environments. For this reason, Albany International manufactures its own door fabric, Rolltex® In fact Albany International is the ONLY high-speed door manufacturer to produce its own fabric. This gives another quality control advantage to the Rapid Roll® Door.

Rolltex® is chemical, weather, and puncture resistant. This revolutionary fabric is constructed of a double-layer, seamless fabric of woven polyester monofilament It's impregnated and coated with PVC and available in several colors including orange and blue. Custom colors are also available.


Rolltex® fabric g-i-v-e-s on impact and restores itself in minutes. In fact, this material is so strong that it:

  • withstands impacts over 3,000 lbs/ square inch (210 kg/cm2);
  • lengthwise tensile strength of over 1500 lbs/ in (68 kg/cm);
  • crosswise tensile strength of over 2200 lbs/ in (105 kg/cm);
  • withstands temperatures between -31f and +212 f (-35c and 100c)

We also have dozens of options and accessories, including the Contactless Safety EdgeTM, the Self-Repairing DeviceTM, and the soft start, soft stop All- StarTM Drive/ NomadriveTMSystem.
