Save time, improve safety, and save money with roll up doors for delivery vehicles
For delivery vehicles that may have mixed destinations, including loading docks, traditional swing-out doors create challenges. The driver must back up near a dock, then open the swing-out doors, then back up to the dock (without damaging the doors) – and repeat all the same steps before leaving.
In contrast, roll up doors eliminate multiple stops/starts and the vehicle can be backed up once to the dock with full usability to open and close the door. Additionally, any incidental impact from backing up is absorbed by the bumper rather than a swing-out door.
Dynatect supports both rear roll-up doors and side roll-up doors that speed loading and unloading. Any doors can be manual or powered. Confidently create the access where it is needed.
Dynatect offers motorized roll-up doors with remote controls to reduce operator repetitive motions and speed each delivery with advanced open and post close while the operator is executing deliveries. Traditional swing out doors cannot be easily automated and would be require multiple actuators to open both doors.
Swing-out doors create impact hazards in the presence of traffic, bicycles, pedestrians, street signs and trees. They create the additional challenge of forcing operators to walk around the door in the presence of these hazards.
In contrast, roll-up doors (as shown) reduce incidence rates and improve safety by eliminating the door hazards.
Traditional swing-out doors can fight the operator when a vehicle is parked on steep slopes. Under these conditions, gravity makes the doors less controllable when opening, or not staying open, depending on which direction of the vehicle is parked.
In contrast, Dynatect’s roll-up door changes the direction of door motion and is spring tensioned to provide consistent performance regardless of how a vehicle is parked on a slope. Roll-up doors will not accidentally move in response to parking on steeply sloped streets.
Traditional “garage doors” with rails that run the length of the ceiling bring the snow and rain directly into the cargo area to drip onto cargo and operators.
In contrast, Dynatect’s water management features include rugged, double-walled construction with weather sealing between each slat, bottom door seals, and a roller canister that captures the entire door in a confined area (drip pan also available).
Dynatect RUD features slats with double-sided aluminum extrusions which are tamper resistant. The ideal balance of minimizing weight, while maximizing durability and security. Door locks are standard for delivery vehicles, power door locks are optional.
Dynatect’s roll-up doors feature slats that are 1-3/8” tall and closely coupled together, eliminating the pinch points of a traditional roll-back doors. Roll-up doors also eliminate the hinged pinch points of swing-out doors.
Help reduce risk of injury and fatigue with convenient access doors that roll open. Dynatect’s spring roller technology includes calibrated tension that ergonomically balance the door for least effort opening and closing force. Each door also features a pull strap to accommodate closing while the operator is standing on the ground, regardless of truck height.
Dynatect offers an exclusive interior handle design that provides for simultaneous unlatching and lifting the door form inside a delivery vehicle. For manually operated doors that utilize an exterior handlebar, the interior bar and release strap (patent pending) allows for a single door opening motion that improves operator efficiency.
Dynatect’s Roll-Up doors meet common vehicle requirements including: minimal opening/closing force, no deformation when open or closed at high velocities, maintain function at high static and dynamic loads, no buzz/squeak/rattle (BSRs) under normal operating conditions, no grinding noise when opening or closing door, and repeatability tested over 500k duty cycles.
Life cycle tested to 500k open/close cycles with 20 years of field-proven weather resistance. Design eliminates metal-on-metal contact which reduces premature wear and supports longevity. Bulb seals are made of EPDM, which has high resistance to UV’s, adjusts to both extreme cold and hot temperatures. Compared to other industry V-seals, the bulb-seal add compression to the door closure and eliminates the wavy/wrinkled appearance.
Dynatect’s small slat height allows the door to be fully contained in a small rolled up space, consuming minimal overhead while maximizing opening height, operator room, and cargo space. Traditional garage doors, with rails that run the length of the ceiling, create interference for operators and tall cargo.
Dynatect’s thin-slatted roll-up doors improve challenges posed by traditional delivery van door types.
Learn Why
Dynatect’s doors feature a smooth, satin anodized aluminum finish. Automotive-grade paint finish also available. Either finish complies with automotive grade UV stability and supports the addition of brand/logos with excellent decal adhesion.
Dynatect’s aluminum slats are formed hollow core, with the industry’s thinnest walls resulting in the lowest weight-to-rigidity ratio.
Reduced door weight helps achieve requested payload capacities on smaller classes of vehicles, and offset the weight demand placed by vehicle air conditioning requirements. This reduced weight has the added benefits of providing more fuel efficiency and more reliable EV range.
Many delivery vehicles include translucent ceilings in the cargo area to minimize the need for electric lighting. When these vehicles are combined with traditional “garage doors” that run the length of the ceiling, electric lights are needed to compensate for the obscured sunlight. Dynatect’s compact door roller eliminates overhead interference, maximizing sunlight, minimizing the need for supplemental light. This reduced electrical usage has the added benefit of providing more reliable EV range.
Dynatect has revolutionized the OEM installation of roll up doors that reduces installation time, labor, and cost. Dynatect now offers a bolt-in installation designs that include the rails, slatted doors, and just four vehicle connection points. This design can support under one-minute installation in high-volume OEM environments and allows for field/depot replacement with minimal time/ tools required.
Dynatect can be the single source for fit / form / function. Dynatect offers OEM customizations including curved rails and roller positions that provide contoured fit with existing designs. Dynatect also provides the doors as individual parts or as an assembled drop-in assembly (door and frame pre-assembled). Additional OEM options include a custom beauty-cover to close exterior gaps, and fascia caps to cover external mounting locations.
