Property #10022544

Background. The current access door was removed on January 28, 2025, after it had been damaged by a vehicle backing into it. The door panels were creased with some rollers fallen off, leaving the door suspended in torsion spring. Some rollers remained in the track. A temporary plywood “door” has been installed to secure the building contents. The plywood “door” was installed so that the new door panels can be installed without the plywood being removed. The 15-inch radius track, torsion springs, shafts, struts, opener trolley and drive trains are still in place and need to be inspected by the contractor to determine reuse or replacement.

Objectives. To install a functional equipment overhead door to access the storage building.

Scope. Provide materials and installation for 14-foot by 16-foot, 24 gauge, non-insulated, ribbed, steel panel door. The 15-inch radius track, torsion springs, shafts, struts, opener trolley and drive trains are still in place and need to be reviewed by contractor for reuse or replacement. If the 15-inch radius track, torsion springs, shafts, struts, opener trolley and drive trains are reused, contractor will need to ensure that all parts are operating properly, with the replacement door opening and closing without any issue.
