In addition, it significantly reduces the risk of both wear and tear and breakdowns, because the door can withstand heavy-duty demands such as repeated use, water spray and corrosive materials. The subsequent low maintenance cost and limited risk of door downtime will profit your business.

Why choose a Dynaco sectional overhead door?

Every Dynaco sectional overhead door has been designed with your needs in mind. Your guarantee for a sectional overhead door that is solid, smooth, safe, secure, sustainable and stylish. And as always, you can count on our partners’ impeccable service to get - and keep - you going. 

Solid

Our sectional doors are built to last, with the sturdiest of materials. All door leafs, track sets and spring packages are made of steel to guarantee an extended life span of up to 200,000 cycles. The micro-rilled finish - typical of our industrial door range - and a category RC3 corrosion resistance will keep your door in impeccable shape, despite any outdoor influences. In addition, our doors offer exceptional wind resistance and conform to industry standards (EN13241-1). Have them assembled, installed and maintained on-site, by our Dynaco dealers and you’re guaranteed a door that works - and keeps working - in any heavy-duty industrial application.

Smooth

Time is money, so operational efficiency is key when choosing the perfect door. Thanks to its automated, electrical operation, Dynaco’s sectional door range guarantees a smooth flow of people, vehicles and goods. Every one of our industrial doors, whatever its size or weight, works through a 230 V single face operator instead of the 380-400 V found in other industrial doors on the market. As a result, operations can start immediately, even in buildings that are still under construction, because the door can be operated through an extension cord.

The IDO7 operator comes with a built-in frequency converter that ensures a soft start and soft stop, thus not only reducing the wear and tear of your door, but also limiting the door’s noise level. In need of some extra speed? The operator is also available in a 2H version, for an even speedier opening and closing cycle (0.5 m/s opening - 0.25 closing).

Dynaco’s ingenious easy release system, furthermore, allows you to continue even when a power failure occurs or when the door is in need of maintenance. In other words, with a Dynaco sectional door you radically save on costly downtime. Just pull the cord behind the operator to disengage the clutch and manoeuvre the door manually.

Safe

Safety comes first, so all Dynaco industrial doors have been designed to keep your staff and equipment safe. Thanks to its unique balancing system, heavy forces are supported. In case of a spring or cable break the door’s counterforce is lost, so we equip our doors with the necessary mechanical safety devices to prevent a door from falling down, such as our spring break device and our cable break device Next to this, our sectional doors come with several electrical safety features. The bottom edge is equipped with a pneumatic safety rubber which will be compressed as soon as it comes into contact with an obstacle, human or other. When this occurs, the door will automatically reverse and reopen. In addition, photocell barriers on the sides light up in case of any obstacles in the door’s way.

Secure

Sectional overhead doors are the ideal solution when you want to keep your building secure. Dynaco’s solid door structure and burglar proof designs protect your premises. The Dynaco I-14DD, for instance, comes with a lock bolt that locks the door from the inside, without the use of a key. The lock bolt has a hole in the latch, to allow the use of a 12mm padlock and is not visible from the outside. A cylinder lock ensures extra security. This key operated lock is installed on the inside and can be unlocked with a key and by turning the handle. Access to the cylinder lock is possible from either only the inside, or both the inside and the outside.

Sustainable

These days, sustainability is key; you want to keep your energy consumption in check and limit your impact on the planet. Dynaco’s sectional doors offer the best U value in the market. Each door is made of insulated panels that are designed without thermal bridge, to provide minimal thermal transmittance. Filling the panels with polyurethane is done by Dynaco, which reduces transportation costs and the ecological footprint.

Whichever industrial door you choose, you will be guaranteed energy savings thanks to the fast opening-closing cycle and excellent sealing characteristics. In fact, you will know exactly what to expect in terms of energy consumption thanks to the energy level label attached.

Stylish

Dynaco’s industrial door range is a perfect example of form meets function. Our doors not only work like a dream, they look good too. All doors can be fully customised to meet your specific requirements, as they are available in 13 standard colours or in the custom colour of your choice. Adapt the size, lift size or window options easily with the HIVE CPQ, or why not add a pass door, to allow people to enter and exit, without having to open the entire door? Extra safe for pedestrians, and it leads to extra energy savings! Our doors fully disappear under the roof when open, leaving the door opening completely free and ensuring a clean, streamlined facade.

Dynaco, always your safest choice. Today and tomorrow.

At Dynaco we want to help you stay always ahead, so we’re continuously pushing ourselves and our industry forward. Soon we will be expanding our range with HAFA, our innovative door leveler system to guarantee an even more efficient and smooth operational flow and make loading/unloading even safer.
