Champion Door’s resilient mine doors for extreme conditions
Champion Door’s mine doors are engineered to withstand the toughest conditions, offering superior durability, thermal insulation, and energy efficiency. Designed for minimal maintenance, these doors provide long-lasting, cost-effective performance in harsh environments.
Tarpaulin fold-up doors for cold northern conditions can be fitted with a fabric withstanding temperatures as cold as 60 degrees below freezing. Champion Door’s fabric fold-up door is the only model on the market with additional thermal insulation available as necessary. In a mine door with good thermal insulation, condensation of moisture on the door surface is minimal, and the door is highly reliable even in Arctic conditions.
The technology of fold-up doors designed for mining industry are built to withstand very dirty, moist and dusty conditions. The tight structure of the door protects the mechanism from the conditions, saves energy and increases employee comfort by preventing draught. The corrosion protection of the components makes the metal parts of the doors particularly strong. The doors have a long service life with little need for maintenance, so their life-cycle costs are highly affordable.
