15 engineered industrial door models – sliding, folding, fabric megadoor, aircraft hangar, rubber impactable, fire-rated, explosion-proof and stainless – built to your exact opening and validated under our 100,000-Cycle Durability Guarantee. CE-marked to EN 13241 with EN 12453 operator safety. Any size, any spec, custom engineered to your specification, from custom engineering to container-load delivery.
A large industrial door fails you in four ways: the opening is too big or too non-standard for a catalog product, it cannot hold its wind class at full span, it corrodes in washdown or marine service, or it lacks the fire, ATEX or technical drawing documentation your project needs to close out. As a pure manufacturer, RAX engineers the door, the drive and the spare parts under one roof – tested from −30°C cold storage to +50°C desert – and ships full foundation loads, English manuals and wiring diagrams so your local team installs with confidence. Large industrial doors start from prototype to full production runs: any size, any spec, custom engineered to your specification.
You need one-stop sourcing and complete documentation to close out a package. We supply CE docs (EN 13241), installation guides, wiring diagrams and foundation/track loads – doors, openers and parts from a single factory.
Automated lines need doors that talk to the control system. Servo VFD drive with radar/geomagnetic/light-curtain sensing and WiFi/RS485 connectivity integrates with conveyors, robotic cells and building management.
Forklift impact, dust and abrasion destroy rigid doors. Rubber impactable and breakaway models deflect and re-set, cutting the downtime and panel damage that rigid doors incur on busy traffic faces.
Very large openings need real engineering, not a stretched catalog panel. Sliding and bi-fold hangar doors and fabric megadoors are built to your span – any size, fully engineered to your specification – with the structural data to back it.
Every model is manufactured in-house, validated under our 100,000-Cycle Durability Guarantee and shipped with English installation manuals and wiring diagrams. Any size, any spec, custom engineered to your specification.
Horizontal sliding operation on a ground or top-hung track for wide openings where vertical lift is impractical.

Integrity note: figures marked “industry-typical” or attributed to a named competitor (ASSA ABLOY, Rite-Hite, Schweiss) are reference benchmarks, not RAX test data – we do not borrow a competitor’s size or speed as our own. RAX-claimable values come from our brand brief; the certified value for each model (wind class at full span, U-value, fire class, ATEX scope) is provided with the matching EN test report on request. We do not publish invented certificates, clients or numbers.
A credible large-door specification names the standards it meets – and what each one actually covers. This is the difference between a declared, test-backed class and a vague marketing label, and it is exactly the documentation an EPC package needs to close out. The following are the European standards that govern industrial doors.
The umbrella CE product standard, covering mechanical safety (manual operating effort, strength, declared durability cycles), powered-door safety (crush/shear/entrapment, controlled forces), EMC, water penetration, wind pressure resistance (EN 12424), thermal resistance / U-value (EN 12428) and air permeability (EN 12427/12426). CE conformity uses initial type assessment plus factory production control, with technical documentation retained 10 years. It excludes fire and smoke behaviour, which route to EN 16034.
Defines operating-force limits and entrapment protection for motorized doors, referenced by EN 13241. With EN 12978 (protective devices such as safety edges and photocells), it is the basis for limiting crush and shear risk on a powered industrial door. RAX cites CE to EN 13241 and EN 12453.
Classifies wind load resistance on a Class 0-5 scale and provides the test / calculation method. Class 0 means no declared performance; Class 5 (above 1000 Pa) is exceptional and agreed by special arrangement. On large doors the achievable class falls as span grows, so the class must be verified at the full opening width. Pressure values are summarized below.
The fire test method. Integrity (E) failure includes cotton-pad ignition, sustained back-face flame >10 s, or gauge penetration of cracks. Insulation (I) limits the average back-face temperature rise to ≤140 °C (I₁: all points ≤180 °C; I₂: frame ≤360 °C, other points ≤180 °C). Radiation (W) is evaluated once the back face reaches ≥300 °C. The standard time-temperature curve is T = 345·log₁₀(8t+1) + 20.
The product standard for fire and/or smoke-resisting door and shutter assemblies. Because EN 13241 excludes fire and smoke, EN 16034 is the route to CE-marking fire performance and is used together with EN 13241.
Produces the fire classification label (for example EI₁ 60 or EI₂ 120, in minutes) from EN 1634 test data. A “fire-rated” industrial door should carry both the EN 1634-1 test report and the EN 13501-2 classification – not just a marketing label.
EN 12428 sets the thermal-resistance (U-value) calculation for doors; EN 12427 is the air-permeability test method and EN 12426 the air-permeability classification. These are the referenced methods behind the insulation and draught performance declared under EN 13241 – important for cold storage and energy compliance.
Governs equipment intended for explosive atmospheres (with workplace rules under 1999/92/EC): Group I (mining) and Group II (surface industries); gas zones 0/1/2 and dust zones 20/21/22; Category 2/3 conformity routes; marking carries the “Ex” symbol plus “CE”. For an explosion-proof door, RAX supplies an explosion-proof motor marked Ex d IIB T4 (flameproof enclosure, gas group IIB, temperature class T4). Note: an Ex-rated motor is a component specification – a whole-door ATEX assembly certification to a specific zone and category is a separate matter, confirmed per project rather than over-claimed.
Reference pressure values per EN 12424 as cited within EN 13241 documentation. Classes run 0-5; the table shows the commonly referenced design / test / failure / calculation values for Classes 0-3, with Class 5 above 1000 Pa.
| Class | Design (Pa) | Test (Pa) | Failure (Pa) | Calculation (Pa) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Class 0 | ≤ 300 | 330 | ≥ 415 | 450 |
| Class 1 | ≤ 450 | 495 | ≥ 620 | 675 |
| Class 2 | ≤ 700 | 770 | ≥ 965 | 1050 |
| Class 3 | ≤ 1000 | 1100 | ≥ 1375 | 1500 |
| Class 5 | Above 1000 Pa – exceptional, by special agreement | |||
RAX markets “Wind Load Class 5 Certified” on this EN 12424 0-5 scale. (This is distinct from RAX’s proprietary spiral high-speed door “Class 12” scale, which applies to a different product family and is not used for these industrial doors.) For large-span doors the certified class must be confirmed at the full opening width by the wind load test report.
Factories, cold storage and automated production lines, plus heavy industry, aircraft hangars, shipyards, fire compartments and explosive-atmosphere plants – engineered and tested from −30°C cold storage to +50°C desert conditions.
Sliding, folding and impactable doors integrated with conveyors and robotic cells via servo VFD drive and WiFi/RS485 connectivity for automated production flow.
Rubber impactable and breakaway doors for mining, petroleum, agriculture, pulp & paper and steel – deflecting forklift impact and re-setting to cut downtime.
Sliding and bi-fold hangar doors and fabric megadoors engineered to spans from small hangars (<30 m) up to very large openings, with foundation and track loads.
Vertical-lifting fabric megadoors for very large marine and industrial openings where a rigid door of that span is impractical.
Extreme Cold Storage and insulated doors holding temperature stability and declared thermal performance (EN 12428) in sub-zero rooms down to −30°C.
Stainless steel 304/316 doors with the correct grade for chloride and CIP environments – food processing, seafood, dairy and pharmaceutical washdown.
Fire-rated steel doors tested to EN 1634-1 and classified to EN 13501-2 (EI60 / EI120 capability) for compartmentation in factories and public buildings.
Explosion-proof doors fitted with an Ex d IIB T4 motor for chemical and process sites, with ATEX scope confirmed per zone and category.
Work through these eight points and you will have everything our engineers need to return a proposal, technical layout, foundation loads and the correct EN-class documentation – usually within one working day.
Give the clear structural opening width × height, available headroom and side room, and any crane or track constraints. We build to any span from prototype to full production runs (custom engineered to your specification); hangar spans range from small (<30 m) to very large openings.
Match the mechanism to the job: sliding or folding for wide factory bays, fabric megadoor for very large spans, sliding/bi-fold for hangars, rubber impactable for forklift traffic, fire or explosion-proof for compliance.
Tell us the site exposure and design wind pressure. We select the EN 12424 wind class (0-5) and confirm it holds at the full opening width – the class falls as span grows, so wide doors need mullions and wind braces.
If the door forms part of a fire compartment, specify the required EI class and duration (e.g. EI₂ 60 / 120). We provide the EN 1634-1 test report and EN 13501-2 classification – not just a label.
For explosive atmospheres, identify the gas zone (0/1/2) or dust zone (20/21/22) and category. We clarify precisely what is certified – our Ex d IIB T4 motor is a component spec; whole-door assembly scope is confirmed per project.
Define corrosion and hygiene needs: stainless grade 304 vs 316 (chloride / CIP), washdown, marine exposure, or cold storage down to −30°C. We select the substrate and seals to match.
State traffic frequency and required operating speed. Heavy steel and hangar doors run slowly (~0.1-0.2 m/s) due to mass; high-cycle traffic doors use faster servo drives, validated to 100,000 cycles.
For hangar and megadoor installations, we provide foundation and track load data plus technical drawings so your civil team can design the supporting structure correctly.

Rigorous 100,000-Cycle Fatigue Testing Protocols, Validated Galvanized Steel & Aluminum Alloy Materials, and Precision Servo-Drive Manufacturing. Every order ships with a CE Declaration of Conformity and EN 13241 test report, plus the matching EN 12453, wind load, U-value, fire (EN 1634-1 / EN 13501-2) and ATEX/Ex motor documentation as applicable.
One unit. RAX operates an Any Size, Any Spec — Deep Customization policy: large industrial and hangar doors are engineered to your exact opening, specification and RAL color from prototype to full production runs, with full project flexibility from prototype to container-load. This is ideal for one-off large-span openings, prototypes and EPC packages.
We engineer to your span – any size, fully engineered to your specification. For context, aircraft hangar openings are commonly classed from small (under 30 m) to XXL (over 120 m), and vertical-lifting fabric megadoors are used for very large openings where a rigid door is impractical. We provide the structural data, foundation and track loads, for each project rather than publishing a single fixed maximum.
Wind load resistance is classified to EN 12424 / EN 12444 on a Class 0-5 scale, where Class 0 means no declared performance and Class 5 is above 1000 Pa (by special agreement). RAX markets “Wind Load Class 5 Certified” on this EN 12424 scale – distinct from our proprietary spiral high-speed door “Class 12” scale, which applies to a separate product family. Critically, the achievable class falls as span grows, so we confirm the certified class at your full opening width with the wind load test report.
Precision matters here. RAX explosion-proof doors are fitted with an explosion-proof motor marked Ex d IIB T4 (flameproof enclosure, gas group IIB, temperature class T4). That is a component (motor) specification under ATEX 2014/34/EU. A whole-door ATEX assembly certification to a specific zone (gas 0/1/2, dust 20/21/22) and category is a separate matter – we confirm the exact scope for your zone and category on the project rather than over-claiming an assembly certificate.
Yes. Fire resistance is tested to EN 1634-1 and classified to EN 13501-2 (for example EI₁/EI₂ 60 or 120, in minutes). RAX offers fire-rated capability at EI60 / EI120. Because EN 13241 excludes fire and smoke, fire performance routes through EN 16034 – and a credible fire door carries both the EN 1634-1 test report and the EN 13501-2 classification, not just a “fire-rated” label. We supply that documentation per model.
Grade 304 (~18% Cr / 8% Ni) is the general food-grade choice for breweries, dairy and standard washdown. Grade 316 adds 2-3% molybdenum for chloride resistance, so it is specified for seafood, salt, pool, chemical and high-salt marine environments. Stainless withstands CIP cleaning at roughly 80-90 °C. Tell us your environment and we select the grade – RAX offers both 304 and 316.
