Flood Vents for Parking Garage Doors | NYC & NJ Area

Posted by Overhead Door Expert on Dec 17, 2015 5:09:02 PM

 Depending on what market you are in, the local authority having jurisdiction may require you to have flood vents in your parking garage door to allow water to flow in and out in the event of a dangerous flood or storm.


What Are Flood Vents for?

Hydrostatic pressure caused by rapidly rising floodwaters can easily destroy the average commercial or residential garage door. Flood Vents protect buildings in floodplains by preventing water pressure buildup that can destroy walls and foundations. These vents can be insulated and non-insulated.

Exploring New Orleans Through Its Doors, Architecture, and Street Scenes

New Orleans is not only a city with lots of food, art and culture but it's also a city with lots of diverse architecture and doors.

On a recent family trip to New Orleans I saw great examples of what doormen and women do in another tourist city.  I have found learning what is done in other cities helps me support customers in the metro NYC and NJ area.  Check out my photos of New Orleans!

Swinging Pass Doors in Rolling Gates

Posted by Jai Patel on Dec 7, 2015 8:41:39 PM

Have you considered putting a hollow metal door in your rolling door opening? A pass swinging door, also known as a pedestrian wicket door, can add a lot of flexibility to your facility. Instead of opening the entire rolling door every time someone needs to walk in or out, a smaller swinging door allows easy access for foot traffic, helping you maintain energy efficiency and reduce heat or cooling loss.

The door pictured below shows a great example of this in action. At Cafe Grumpy in Park Slope, Brooklyn, the swinging pass door allows employees to receive small shipments of raw materials efficiently, while still keeping the facility secure. This setup prevents unnecessary wear and tear on the main rolling door, streamlines daily operations, and ensures that employees don’t have to struggle with lifting or opening heavy doors just for foot traffic.
