The FLEX-BACK™ Panel is the answer to common lower door panel damage,
which is one of the most frequent and costly maintenance problems in today’s
busy warehouses. The FLEX-BACK panel is constructed of a high impact polymer
skin and flexible tube frame which allows the panel to flex upon impact and
return to its normal operating position. This durability helps reduce door
maintenance costs and helps eliminate damage to bottom door panels. The
FLEX-BACK uses standard door hardware and replaces most standard sectional door
panels easily. The insulated panel also provides an exceptional thermal seal to
save on energy costs.
