The problem

Mining atmospheres destroy overhead door hardware.

Mineral dust, acidic process atmospheres, and the chemistry that comes with refining or smelting take a heavier toll on overhead door hardware than almost any other industry. Painted galvanized doesn't last.

The cost of failure is amplified by the operating environment. Confined-space access, lock-out tag-out for repairs, doors that have to function for shift transitions and equipment movement.

Stainless avoids the failure mode. SSGDP packages are engineered for mineral processing buildings, ore-handling facilities, and adjacent operations.

Why stainless

Three reasons stainless makes sense in mining.

Built for chemistry and dust.

304 stainless handles the acid mists, chloride loading, and abrasive duty that destroy painted galvanized hardware.

Reduced lock-out cycles.

Hardware that doesn't fail means fewer LOTO events, fewer entries into hazardous areas for maintenance.

Spec-grade documentation.

Submittals, material certs, and engineering support available for capital projects.
