The Apex SR 9000 insulated impact traffic door is not only engineered to ensure safety and ruggedness, but it also manages to blend into any environment as a result of its sleek, modern design. The engineers at Apex Strip Curtains & Doors carefully assessed the optimum design elements required in the harshest conditions to produce this popular locally manufactured door.

It is important that traffic doors combine functionality with longevity. In areas where the movement of pedestrians and goods is particularly high, consideration to the durability of the door needs to be balanced with its ability to provide an unhindered flow of traffic.

The cost effective Apex SR 9000 insulated impact traffic door has found a niche in discerning market sectors where dependable operation coupled with a consistently attractive appearance are important factors.

The door is manufactured from a 3 mm ABS skin which retains its physical properties down to temperatures of -40°C, making it ideal for use in walk-in cold rooms. A choice of six colours allows the customer to select a door to complement any application. The low maintenance skin is impervious to moisture, acids, petroleum products, animal fats, rodent, insects and salt solutions.

The door’s insulation characteristics are further enhanced by the internal design elements. These include the injection of a high-density, non-CFC urethane foam into core into the hollow shell of the door. The patented honeycomb framework and flexible urethane foam insulation further provide optimum stability and superior soundproofing qualities. Not only are these characteristics desirable in temperature-critical areas, but the Apex SR 9000 traffic doors are very popular in hospitals and restaurants, where sound levels need to be controlled.

Standard vision panels, constructed from 3 mm clear polycarbonate sheeting, are available in a number of custom sizes and are scratch-resistance and UBC compatible for enhanced visibility. Windows can be mounted in various positions on the door, dependent on customer requirements and in accordance with ADA requirements. Double pane vision panels can be installed for use in refrigerated areas.

To prevent excessive wear on the perimeter edges of the door, the door panels are bull nosed with a minimum radius of 8 mm. This not only reduces maintenance on the doors, but the resultant seal ensures that energy flow between different areas is minimised for enhanced environmental control.

The Apex SR 9000 doors are mounted on an internal welded steel perimeter with corner gussets, using a CMI type ‘V’ gravity hinging system. Gasket keys are moulded in place and retain gasketing without the use of screws, rivets or other fasteners. High bumpers are also fitted to the door panel to further absorb impact from forklift trucks and carts. This also reduces stress on hardware and mount assemblies.

Optional cross-linked polyethylene spring bumpers, impact plates, partial edge gasketing and lower hinge guards are all available.
