History spot
The overhead sectional door concept has long been the preferred choice
among architects, building contractors and industrial purchasers. The
overhead sectional door, introduced by Crawford on the US market more
than 70 years ago, disappears up under the roof when opened, thereby
giving free space in and around the door opening. In 1960, Crawford
introduced the overhead sectional door for industrial and commercial use
on the European market. To date Crawford has sold almost 1.5 million
doors for Industrial use in Europe.

Hangar doors where there are almost
no size limitations thanks to the
Megadoor swing-up-mullion system.
History spot
The Megadoor vertical fabric folding door is a unique door concept. It was
originally developed for a very rough and corrosive industrial environment
– timber drying kilns. With temperature differences between the inside
and outside of those buildings of up to more than 100 degrees Celsius,
traditional industrial doors simply could not cope with normal performance
requirements. The Megadoor is thus well suited for other harsh industrial
environments. By introducing the ”multiple mullion” solution, the Megadoor
can be built in almost unlimited sizes, making it an ideal door for very large
openings like aircraft hangars and shipyard docks.
