Hi, I'm looking at building my own hydraulic door on my workshop here in Scotland I currently have a double sliding door, which is 2 doors on a double door rail which over lap 2 x 15ft high by 20 ft wide doors, when open the 2 doors sit side by side in the next 20 ft bay, the clear opening is 15ft high x 39'6" wide Door rail is requiring replacement and the doors need some work so my other option is to replace with 1 hydraulic door I run a fabrication/ steel erecting company so we can make all the parts here, I can get hydraulic cylinders and pump unit manufactured locally What I'm looking for is some guidance from a reputable hydraulic door manufacturer in what's required. Some drawings would be good. Thank you in advanced.

Hi, Looking to get a rough estimate for a bifold door. Detached garage with flat roof. Looking to maximize interior ceiling and wall storage.

Current doors are barn style circa 1971 and showing lots of wear.

Hello, I am putting together a quote for a local farmer to remodel one of his post frame buildings into a more useful structure. It is 45' wide, and concrete floor to bottom of the roof trusses is 13'6". Roof pitch is 4:12. The clear height of 13'6" will need to be maintained. It currently has 20' wide sliding doors on the end. I would like to look at a hydraulic door for the end wall instead of the sliders. The building will be insulated and finished on the inside. I would like to go with at wide of a door as we can get in that 45' end wall. Do you have any advice and pricing/ installation details that I can look at? I have never installed a hydraulic door, but I did install a large Schweiss bifold door on a building in Milbank, SD once.

14

I’m looking to replace sliding doors on existing building. Door is 16’x30’.

15

I have a 16x12 opening that currently has sliding barn doors in front of it. The 12' opening matches the ceiling height for the ground floor. I'm interested in pricing for a bifold door with lift straps.

16

I'm trying to help an existing hangar owner increase his hangar door opening width from a Bi-Parting Pair of Norco Doors that provide a current 80' opening to a 95' clear opening. The clear door opening height is currently 27'. They would like to remain at that opening height if possible. What options do you offer with your Hydraulic Door? If you have some standard details that you could share that would be helpful. The bottom of the end wall frame is just above the 27' door head height. The end wall rafter has 12" flange width and is approximately 36" in depth. Would it be possible to add the new door at the exterior side of the existing end wall frame?

17

Hello, I have an older machine shop that has both sliding doors and roll up doors. both are a pain in the ass. The sliding door opening is about twice the size as the roll up door which is what I entered below. I was wondering if schweiss doors can mount to existing buildings, secondly, since this building is older and not in the best shape- if my building can't support a schweiss door is there some sort of mounting system or header that you could provide, and lastly is there someone who could come assess my building to see if mounting directly to the building with a bifold door is possible? Thanks, Gary

I’m just trying to get an idea for a cost to replace my hangar door. The existing doors are sliders, and they are terrible. I’m not ready to buy right now, but possibly in a few months. I just need to know how much money to get together. The hangar door opening is 40X9.5, but I figure I’ll lose a foot on the width by installing posts to mount the door.

61

We have a sliding door on our sandblasting building. We are having trouble with it holding up. A roll up door won't hold up very well either.

So I'm interested in some components to possibly try.
