US Door introduces windlock door

By General Aviation News Staff · August 19, 2005 ·

The new Model 652 Windlock door by US Door and Building Components Inc. is designed to resist hurricane force winds and is compliant with most coastal building code requirements.

The Model 652 includes the new UHM Nylon windlocks, which allow for smooth and quiet operation without metal-to-metal contact.

In addition to windload resistance, the door, suitable for sizes up to 20 feet by 14 feet, provides protection against vandals and break-ins.

Most doors are available in 22 colors and sizes to fit all applications.
