Commercial Doors for Colleges and Universities

By Blog Master on 20 Sep 2018 In

When you think of doors for a college or university the first thing that might come to mind could be a front entrance door or a dormitory entrance door. There are many other closures and access systems you might walk right by and not even notice. These access systems often include fire-rated doors, coiling doors, parking roll-up doors or sliding security grilles, counter shutters, overhead garage doors, and loading dock equipment. These systems can be for either interior or exterior applications.

For over 50+ years, Overhead Door Company of Central Jersey has specialized in these products.

Starting with exterior applications, there may be a need for doors on a loading dock or receiving area. Doors for this purpose may be coiling steel or sectional-type doors dependent upon the specific requirements for that area. These products offer a wide variety of features including high insulation values, an array of colors to choose from, and many window options. These doors may be manually operated or upgraded to be top-of-the-line automated access systems. To see appropriate choices for this application be sure to look at Overhead Door Corporation Thermacore® roll-up doors (insulated commercial doors) and Stormtite series doors. At the receiving area, there may also be a need for loading dock levelers, loading dock seals or truck shelters, loading dock bumpers, and perhaps vehicle restraints and traffic control systems.
