At this year’s IMHX show, Hörmann will be showcasing a selection of multi-function hinged doors from their extensive range, alongside a selection of industrial doors, loading bay equipment and a fully equipped service vehicle.
Already recognised as the leader in both the loading bay and industrial door markets, Hörmann also leads the way with its multi-function doors. It is the first company to have created a database of all the relevant environmental characteristics so that independently assessed Environmental Product Declarations are available for each door. This means there is a dataset for fire-rated, smoke tight, acoustic rated and break-in resistant doors, as well as external steel doors, compiled in a standardised format for use in ecological building assessments.
Attention to detail in all aspects of the design, product manufacture and the build process has enabled Hörmann to take the lead in producing this important data. Service support is a key element, in both this data gathering and in new product development. Increased demand for manufacturer support has prompted significant investment to ensure that service levels continue to meet the highest possible standards.
The industrial division of Hörmann is dedicated to providing integrated solutions and to achieve this Hörmann designs, engineers and produces a wide range of products. These include dock levellers, dock shelters, integrated control panels, warning light systems, fire doors, security doors and pre-cast concrete loading bay sections. This whole solution approach sets Hörmann apart and makes the company a true one-stop shop for its customers.
Hörmann industrial products are made to order and as such every customer effectively benefits from a bespoke service, where each component is manufactured in a specialist factory equipped with state of the art machinery. This approach ensures the best quality is produced in the most efficient manner, so Hörmann can offer a better product at the market price.
The quality approach to product development and manufacture is matched by the project management approach Hörmann employs. A team of project managers get out on site to work directly with the customer to ensure that the right options are chosen and then installed correctly. The added benefit of this hands-on approach is direct feedback to new product development that maintains the lead that Hörmann enjoys in real world solutions.
While recognised for high quality, highly integrated solutions the basic SB rolling shutter, demonstrated on the stand, shows how the application of precision engineering can deliver cost savings and real value for money. Available as a grille, single skinned steel door or with insulated Decotherm lathes, it is this insulated version that has become the bestseller. Not only is this door easier to fit, since the entire structure including support brackets and side guides mounts onto the building structure, but it is often cheaper than non-insulated options from other manufacturers. The initial cost saving plus the long term savings due to the reliability and longevity achieved through Hörmann’s innovative tension spring assembly, make this one of the most cost effective choices available today.
