U.S. Door's Olympian Series Chosen for City of Austin Energy Center Expansion
Orlando, Florida - October 22, 2008 - When the City of Austin, Texas needed doors for the expansion of the Sand Hill Energy Center, U.S. Door & Building Components' Olympian Series Model 902 doors were selected.
The newly expanded center required several doors ranging in size from 8' wide by 8' high to 16' wide by 20' high. In addition to providing security, improved energy efficiency and noise reduction, the doors also allow easy access for heavy equipment moving and storage.
Model 902 standard features include a flat 3" steel slats with insulation, locking slide bolts, malleable iron windlocks, gloss white hex-shaped hood and duro-bronze painted guides and brackets. The guides are made from structural steel 3-piece angles; the bottom bar is constructed using 2-angle structural steel with a two part posi-lock door stop for extra safety. Optional features included motor operators on all of the doors.
The doors were selected by the General Contractor, Brinkner General Contracting based in Austin, Texas. "The product quality and customer service was excellent" said Steven Brink, Owner of Brinkner General Contracting. "Even with the doors shipping in the midst of Hurricane Ike, U.S. Door's response and communication with the transportation company insured the doors arrived safely and timely."
