Stertil FlexiEdge High-Speed Door Installed at Bodycote Stonehouse

Stertil FlexiEdge high speed door


Stertil has recently supplied and installed a FlexiEdge D-311 high-speed door at Bodycote’s Stonehouse facility in Gloucestershire, replacing a set of traditional double doors in the company’s inspection room.

The previous doors were frequently damaged due to the manual pallet trucks used on site, which required staff to force the doors open when moving product in and out. In addition, the inspection room needed to remain quiet to support the sensitive work carried out within it.

To address these challenges, Stertil proposed the D-311 FlexiEdge, a high-performance internal door designed to provide rapid, safe, and reliable access while minimising noise.

Improved working environment

Since installation, the new high-speed door has transformed operations in the inspection room. Staff have reported that the room is now quieter than before, helping to create a better working environment.

At the same time, moving products in and out is now much easier and more efficient thanks to the automated system: The door is operated via mushroom push buttons on both sides, with a 15-second timed closing delay to ensure safe passage for staff and materials.

Proven solution across industries

The FlexiEdge D-311 is part of Stertil’s extensive range of high-speed doors, developed to improve efficiency, safety, and working conditions in industrial environments. Its soft-edge design enhances safety by eliminating rigid bottom edges, while its fast operation and durable construction make it a proven solution in sites across the UK.

Bodycote’s positive feedback adds to a growing list of satisfied customers benefitting from Stertil’s FlexiEdge technology.
