Shipbuilding operations are obviously located in coastal areas which are subject to high winds and corrosive marine environments. These extremely large openings call for doors which are generally not operated very frequently; however, consistent reliability is an absolute necessity. Since gas welding is a vital part of the Shipbuilding process, any door must function and be compatible with this type environment.
All Megadoors are specifically engineered for the particular application being considered, and are installed and maintained by local firms who specialize in servicing the ship building industry. Megadoors can be cost effectively designed to withstand and operate under hurricane force winds conditions. All Megadoors and are constructed with corrosive resistant components, and are manufactured for exact and tight fit, thus dramatically reducing air and dust infiltration for an improved working environment. The tightness of the Megadoor provides improved insulation between blast and paint areas, and the fabric is resistant to welding sparks as well as abrasion from shop blasts. The light weight and compact design of the Megadoor helps reduce the overall building costs.
