Our Solution

The property manager requested quotes for a “good, better, best” solution. Our rubber PARK-KING door was identified as the best solution and came highly recommended by Canadoor Door Systems Inc. who installed the new door, because it fit perfectly into the low-headroom space, it has less moving parts, a more durable “bullet-proof” design and operates faster and quieter than all other doors. The purchase decision was driven primarily by return on investment. Although the rubber door costs roughly twice as much, it is designed to last over 20 years in this tough environment. Reduced annual maintenance costs ensures a favourable payback period that, in the end, made it an easy decision for the board of directors.
