Low cost, high value bi-folding door
Some projects require the lowest cost possible – period. Well now you can fill that space in the wall without burning a hole in your pocket – and still get the trouble free operation and value added benefits you’d expect from Corflex.
This steel bi-folding door features pushbutton operation, auto-locks and solid operators, cable tensioners and over-travel limit switches that simply outshine the competition. All at a price you wouldn’t think possible
Comparably priced bi-fold doors usually require that their control buttons be pushed and held down in order to raise or lower the door. The Valu-Tec hanger door features momentary activation, which means that it can be automatically activated with the single touch of a button.
The door is automatically locked and unlocked, thanks to standard auto-locks, as it is operated by the pushbutton. And in case of strong wind gusts, the door is secured in place by the automatic base locks.
A standard upper override limit switch prevents damages caused to the door from trying to open beyond its upper limits.
The bifold door’s lift cables are equipped with strong, spring-loaded cable tensioners that reduce stress, cable wear and extend their life through consistent, even wrapping on the line shaft. The tensioners also contribute to a mechanical "soft start" for smoother operation.
All door are minimally built with 2 inches by 2 inches steel members and are appropriately-sized according to the size of the door, wind load and covering. Other manufacturers use 1 ½ by 1 ½-inch tubing on their steel bi-fold doors.
