How does the hydraulic system work?

The hydraulic system powers the upward movement of the two panels. With just the press of a button, the door folds smoothly, reducing strain on the structure and ensuring safe and efficient operation.

What sizes are available?

The SST-II Bi-Fold can be customized to fit large openings, making it suitable for projects that require extra-wide or tall entrances. Our team works with you to design a system that matches your exact project needs.

Does it require regular maintenance?

Routine checks are recommended, but compared to traditional large door systems, the SST-II Bi-Fold is low maintenance. Its hydraulic components and panels are built to withstand heavy use.

What is the difference between the SST-II Bi-Fold, Single Swing, and 50/50 hydraulic systems?

The SST-II Bi-Fold opens vertically in two panels for a wide, awning-like opening. The Single Swing is a single-piece door/window offering the largest clear opening height on the market. The 50/50 (Patent No. 9,567,789) combines features of both, giving a clean opening that takes up very little space when open and needs little to no ongoing maintenance.

What is the SST-II Hydraulic Bi-Fold System, and is it patented?

−

The SST-II Hydraulic Bi-Fold System (Patent No. 8,714,229) is a door/window that opens vertically using hydraulic power instead of cables, straps, pulleys, or springs. It closes with over 1,000 lbs of force, pressing tightly shut all the way around the edge, with no visible locks needed.

What happens to Crown hydraulic doors during a power outage?

The door can be lowered by hand using a built-in release valve. If there's no backup generator on site, an optional battery back-up (two extra batteries, sold separately) can keep the door working.

What wind load rating can Crown hydraulic bi-fold systems achieve?

Gibca Furniture has engineered Crown bi-fold installations to withstand winds of up to 90 mph, proven on real coastal, high-rise projects by using a stronger frame and thicker hardware.

Where can the SST-II Bi-Fold Door be installed?

This system works well for factories, warehouses, aircraft hangars, retail outlets, and even modern architectural projects. Anywhere you need wide access and smooth operation, the SST-II Bi-Fold is a practical fit.

Can Crown hydraulic doors be finished in stainless steel for coastal environments?

Yes, for spaces near the sea, pools, or other environments prone to rust, panels and frames can be made in stainless steel, with a wide choice of powder-coated colors available.
