The Airlock High Speed Door System pairs two (or more) interlocked high speed doors to form an airlock chamber between zones of different pressure, temperature or cleanliness. Only one door opens at a time, so the two zones never communicate directly – controlling contamination, pressure loss and energy transfer at critical transitions.
Each door in the system cycles like other rapid doors – market rapid doors broadly span ~0.6-2.0 m/s by type (industry synthesis) – with the system logic adding interlock control so the doors never open simultaneously. RAX supplies the doors, interlock control and sensing as a package and confirms cycle logic, sealing and pressure-holding per project.
As a pure manufacturer, RAX builds each airlock system to your exact openings and RAL color – from a single system, full order flexibility – with wiring diagrams and English manuals for your local installers.
Sources & honesty: RAX-company facts on this page (materials, 100,000-cycle fatigue testing, certifications held, warranty, lead time) are from RAX Door Technology’s approved brand brief. Industry benchmark figures (typical opening speeds, cycle-life ranges, EN 12424 wind classes, ISO 14644-1 cleanroom classes, competitor reference points) are drawn from our sourced category research (research/high-speed-doors.md) and are marked as industry-typical or attributed to the named manufacturer. RAX’s own measured speed, U-value, wind-class certificate and cleanroom class are confirmed per project by test – we do not publish them as generic figures. Fire resistance (EN 1634-1) and ATEX suitability are project-specific capabilities, not blanket certificates.
Control logic ensures only one door opens at a time, forming a sealed airlock chamber between zones.
Fast doors plus tight sealing minimize pressure and air transfer during each transition.
Radar, geomagnetic, photo-eye and light-curtain options to manage entry/exit and interlock behavior (RAX capability).
Doors and drives validated against RAX’s 100,000-cycle fatigue protocol; servo motors backed by a 5-year warranty.
| Product | Airlock High Speed Door System |
| Category | High Speed Doors |
| Configuration | Two or more interlocked high speed doors forming an airlock chamber; PVC (0.9-1.2 mm) or rigid panel doors (RAX) to suit the zones. |
| Interlock control | Only one door opens at a time; logic and timing configured per project (RAX control capability, WiFi/RS485 ready). |
| Opening speed | Rapid cycling on each door; exact RAX speed confirmed per project (market rapid doors broadly span ~0.6-2.0 m/s by type – industry synthesis). |

| Certification | CE EN 13241 / EN 12453 (held); cleanroom class verification by third party where required. |
| Order | Custom engineered to your exact opening, specification and RAL color |
Provide clear opening width x height, headroom and side room – or site photos. We produce the confirmation drawing and confirm the feasible span against wind class.
Cycles per day, operating temperature range, wind exposure, and clean / cold / washdown / hazardous-area duty.
Target speed, thermal (U-value), wind (EN 12424), fire (EN 1634-1), acoustic or cleanroom class – we match the applicable standard and confirm by test.
Servo or VFD drive, sensing (radar / geomagnetic / light-curtain), safety edges and any safety-interlock or smart (WiFi/RS485) control needs.
Airlocks that protect pressure differentials at cleanroom transitions (pair with cleanroom doors).
Buffer airlocks limiting warm-air ingress between ambient and chilled zones.
Personnel and material airlocks between hygiene zones.
Maintaining positive/negative pressure across critical boundaries.
RAX supports full private-label production of the Airlock High Speed Door System: custom RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and installation-manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU). Start with an OEM sample and scale to container-load branded production. Custom molds, Tooling records are archived for up to 5 years — no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA.
Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors – the harmonized basis for CE marking. Covers mechanical and power-operated safety, wind-pressure and water-penetration resistance, thermal (U-value) and air-permeability performance, with technical documentation retained 10 years.
Safety in use of power-operated doors – operating-force limits and entrapment protection, and the test methods behind our operator safety data.
Cleanroom air-cleanliness classification by particle count (ISO Class 1-9) – e.g. ISO 7 = 352,000 particles/m3 at 0.5 micron; ISO 8 = 3,520,000. The door’s role is air-tightness and fast cycling to hold pressure differentials.
Any opening size within the High Speed Doors range – large industrial doors from prototype to container-load, full flexibility on order quantity. Share your opening width x height (or site photos) and our engineers confirm the feasible span, wind class and drive sizing, then produce technical drawings.
Each door in an airlock system cycles like other rapid doors – market rapid doors broadly span ~0.6-2.0 m/s by type (industry synthesis) – with interlock logic ensuring the two doors never open at the same time. RAX confirms the per-door travel speed and the cycle logic for your system in the quotation.
The control logic allows only one door to open at a time, so the two zones never communicate directly – this holds the pressure differential and limits contamination or air transfer. RAX supplies the doors, interlock control and sensing (radar, photo-eye, light curtain) as a package and configures the timing and behavior per project. Tell us your chamber size and pressure/cleanliness requirement and we will engineer the system.
We are a pure manufacturer and do not provide on-site installation. Every order ships with an English installation manual, wiring diagrams for your local installation team; operators are pre-set and tested before dispatch.
RAX holds ISO 9001:2015 and CE to EN 13241 (industrial door) and EN 12453 (operator safety), with SGS material reports and product liability insurance. Fire resistance (EI60/EI120) and an EN 12424 wind-load class are project-specific capabilities we test and certify per order against the matching standard – we do not overclaim a blanket rating.
Yes. RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU) are all supported, from an OEM sample to container-load branded production, under strict NDA.
