86: MACHINE SHED DOORS

1

We lost a 120x50 machine shed and a 50x80 shop to a tornado a few weeks ago. We are still in the planning stage, but we know both buildings or one combined will be larger than now. My original plan was for a 35x16 bi-fold door on one end and a 45x16 on the opposite end of the machinery storage if built as a stand alone. Might want two 30x16 bi-folds in the shop. Still thinking through that. We are being told, it might be 6 months before shed could be built, but we are just starting to other builders to see if anyone could build one sooner. Right now, I would just like an estimate of cost of the four bifold doors I listed, and broken down individually. Also would appreciate comments and price on hydraulic doors for the two biggest and what you see as the pros and cons of both doors. Thank You!

I have a machine shed with a cement foundation located in Lamont, IA. The south end of this machine shed features a 24' wide x 15' high sliding door that opens in two equal sized parts. I am pouring a floor in this building and insulating the walls and ceiling to make the building into a farm shop. This means the sliding door needs to be replaced with something that is better sealed. One thing I like about the construction of the sliding door is that it provides an opening right up to the underside of the trusses, maximizing the height of machinery that can pass through the door. Do you offer any other commercial doors that would preserve my full opening height? I look forward to your response.

42

Planning for a new farm machine shop door next year. Building construction is currently unknown with respect to steel or wood framed building. Current plan is for a 60x120 building with approximately half (50'x60') an insulated shop door  with either a hydraulic swing door or bifold liftstrap door 18' high by 38 wide. The equipment doors will be on the sidewall of the building. The shop door will have an apron in front of the door. I like the seal and shade offered by a hydraulic swing door, but lean towards bifold strap doors due to heavy winter snow fall, building strength and swing out distance. A lot of work gets done outside the shop door on the apron. I think a Schweiss bifold door would work better if the door needed to be opened with equipment parked outside. I am at the stage where I could design the building around whatever Schweiss door I choose.

building a shop wondering about bi-fold doors I want height of at least 15' possibly 16' to bring machinery into the building. What size of rough opening would I need? I'm looking for 30' and 24' wide doors. 30' would be an end door and the 24' would be a side door.

99

We are building a shop / machinery storage building for a larger family farm located in SW Minnesota. They are looking for a 48' x 16' equipment door along with a 28' x 16' and a 16' x 16' door. They believe they want hydraulic doors, but would consider a bi-fold doors if there is a significant price difference. The clearance is an issue, so in the case of the bi-fold doors we would want to go to an 18' high door to still get the 16' of clearance. Since these are located on an end wall of a 160' wide building there would be no problem in accomodating the additional height for the bi-fold door opening. Please give us pricing quotes as soon as possible. Thanks, Neal
