Naval Doors

Individually Clipped doors are available in Mild Steel, with 3, 5 or 6mm thick embossed panels (depending on the watertight integrity requirement), or in Aluminium with a 5mm thick embossed panel.

The frame, manufactured from rolled angle in the same material as the door panel (unless specified otherwise), forms the clear opening of the door and is supplied with 230mm internal radius corners. As with the door panel, the size and thickness of the angle frame increases to suit the watertight integrity requirement.

The doors benefit from frame mounted locking arrangements which minimize the panel weight. The locking clips, which seal the door to specification, are machined from high quality forgings and are available in mild steel or polished stainless steel (grade 316). They are operable from both sides of the door as standard, but can be supplied ''operable from outside only'' as an option. 

Quick-Acting Doors are available in mild steel, with 3 or 6mm thick embossed panels, or in aluminium with a 5mm thick embossed panel.

The frame, manufactured from rolled angle in the same material as the door panel (unless specified otherwise), forms the clear opening of the door and is supplied with 230mm internal radius corners. As with the door panel, the size and thickness of the angle frame increases to suit the watertight integrity requirement.

The door is sealed to specification from either side by central handwheels. The handwheels, available in mild steel or polished stainless steel (grade 316), operate a reduction geared cam system, mounted on the inside of the door panel, which drives the adjustable locking clips onto frame mounted wedges.

The embossed panels for Airtight/Gastight doors are manufactured from 3mm thick Mild Steel or 5mm thick Aluminium.

The door is sealed to specification by interconnected clips, mounted on the panel, which engage onto wedges on the frame. Operation is via a single hand lever on either side of the door panel.
