| Vertical Bi-Parting Freight Doors | |||||||||
| Vertical bi-parting doors provide full opening width access to the inside of the car, but require very little additional hoistway space. Bi-parting doors can be applied in most hoistway situations, including short spandrel heights, shallow pit, and low overheads. The counterbalance of the two door panels ensures smooth operation and long motor life for power doors. | |||||||||
Regular Type Doors
have found acceptance world wide. They are used when there is sufficient space available in the hoistway |
Pass Type Doors are used when the floor-to-floor dimension is restricted. Pass doors allow the use of Bi-Parting doors by having the upper panel at the short floor height offset to pass behind the lower panel of the door above. They are also known as Extended Sill Doors. |

| Door Construction | |||||||||
There are three basic types of standard door construction available from COURION - STEEL PLATE (SP) panels have 12 gauge face sheets welded to reinforced structural steel frames. SP doors are UL and C-UL rated 1-1/2 hour (B). STEEL PLATE INSULATED (SPI) panels are similar to SP, with the addition of insulation and a shaft-side steel sheet covering. SPI doors are UL and C-UL rated 1-1/2 hour (B) and heat transmission rated at 650 degrees F maximum temperature rise in 30 minutes. METAL CLAD (M-6) panels have wood cores with galvanized steel coverings that provide greater fire resistance and extra resilience. M-6 doors are recommended for general commercial and heavy duty industrial use - except in wet conditions. M-6 doors are quieter and more resistant to serious damage from power trucks. M-6 doors are UL & C-UL rated 1-1/2 hour (B), and heat transmission rated at 250 degrees F maximum temperature rise in 30 minutes. |
