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.

Rolling Doors for Slanted Floors in NYC & NJ Area

Posted by Jai Patel on Dec 7, 2015 8:04:32 PM

In the Metro NYC NJ area, slanted or sloped sidewalks & driveways is common.  When we install rolling doors for slanted floors, we have a way to accommodate the slope and still make a tight seal on the floor. Our pitch plate bottom bars can accommodate sloping or irregular sills like odd shaped floor conditions (rails, tracks, curbs, slopes).

Slanted Driveway Rolling Grille Coiling Door

Crooked sidewalk and floor problems can be resolved by installing sloping bottom bars in the rolling doors. We can help reduce water leakage into the building with larger bottom weather seals.

It is important to do a quality site measurement to be sure you have enough headroom for a sloped roll up gate. You need to consider that the excess steel in the slope needs to hid behind the header as it cannot roll up into the coil of the coiling door.  Therefore additional headroom is required for the coiling slats to clear the opening height.

Sloping rolling gates can be powder-coated in many colors.  The roll down doors can have security slide bolts with interlock motor integration. You have the ability to integrate safety features like photo eyes and light curtains.
