Commercial Stacking Doors
With virtually no size limitations these commercial stacking (bottom rolling) doors from Sperling are ideal for any aircraft hangar or maintenance facility, including those for the largest aircraft built today. They are also in great demand for commercial buildings and manufacturing plants which require exceptionally large openings.

Depending on the building layout and width of opening required, Sperling's "Commercial Stacking Doors" are availiable in a variety of opening configurations. The leafing or stacking system allows the panels to all open to one side or from the center out to both sides. A small over-head or roll-up door can be installed above the center panels of bi-parting doors to accommadate the tail section of larger aircraft or similar applications.

The panels are availiable with a variety of insulation packages, windows and walk-in service doors. to help reduce winter heat loss, one panel/leaf can be opened to bring in a service truck, etc. In the case of a power failure, doors can be opened manually, by simply disconnecting the drive.
