Exterior door openings can take on a lot of wear from trucks, forklifts, weather exposure, and steady facility traffic. When a standard door cannot meet those conditions, high-speed rubber doors offer commercial and industrial buildings a stronger option for daily access.
At Overhead Door of Wausau, we help businesses choose door systems that fit the way their buildings operate. The RapidFlex® rubber door series from Overhead Door™ is designed for tough exterior applications where speed, impact resistance, and dependable performance matter.
Built for Heavy Exterior Use
RapidFlex® rubber doors feature a rugged NBR rubber curtain with polyester-weave reinforcement. That construction helps the door withstand active environments while still allowing fast movement at busy openings.
The RapidFlex® High Speed Exterior Rubber Door, Model 995, is well-suited for large openings with regular vehicle and equipment traffic. It opens up to 50 inches per second and fits openings up to 30 feet wide, making it a strong choice for facilities that need wide exterior access without slow door operation.
These doors can support loading areas, parking structures, municipal buildings, equipment bays, and industrial service openings. For exposed spaces where impact and weather affect daily operations, high-speed exterior rubber doors can help protect openings while maintaining steady movement.
Designed to Recover After Impact
RapidFlex® rubber doors include breakaway and self-reset features that help the door recover after certain impacts. That design can help reduce downtime and keep the opening usable after everyday contact.
The Model 995 also includes infrared obstruction detection, wireless reversing safety edges, and heavy-duty guides. These features help support safer movement around active openings where employees, vehicles, and materials pass through during the workday.
For facilities with limited headroom, the compact, pre-installed header assembly can also help the door fit the available space. That flexibility matters in buildings where clearance is tight or layout changes would be difficult.
