Steelcraft’s quick-opening doors are manufactured to ASME and Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) standards with the CE mark.

Quick-opening doors should always be installed in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

Does Steelcraft provide a fatigue life rating for its quick-opening doors?

Yes. Steelcraft designs and manufactures its quick-opening doors to meet the number of specified cycles over the life of the unit.

Does Steelcraft provide individual quick-opening door components so I can fabricate the door myself?

No. Steelcraft quick-opening doors are fully-certified under ASME and PED and as a result must be fully-welded and tested prior to shipment. That said, the finished assembly can be welded onto a vessel by a certified fabricator.
