Let's talk about something that's easy to overlook but absolutely critical in any industrial setup: the doors. Not just any doors—we're talking about the big, sturdy, hardworking doors that keep your factory running smoothly. You know the ones: they stand between your equipment and the elements, they let heavy machinery roll in and out, and they keep your team safe day in and day out. But here's the thing: not all industrial spaces are created equal. A one-size-fits-all door? More often than not, it's a recipe for headaches. That's where custom size factory doors come in—and why they might just be the unsung hero your facility needs.
Imagine walking into a manufacturing plant that makes large industrial engines. The main entrance door needs to accommodate a crane that lifts these engines in and out. If that door is too narrow or too short, you're looking at delays, damaged equipment, or even safety risks. Now picture a food processing facility where hygiene is non-negotiable. A standard door might have gaps that let in dust or pests—big no-nos when you're dealing with products meant for human consumption. Or think about a warehouse in a region with extreme temperatures: a poorly fitting door could let in hot air in the summer or cold drafts in the winter, hiking up your energy bills.
Standard doors are designed to fit average needs, but industrial spaces are anything but average. Maybe your facility has unique structural constraints—uneven floors, low ceilings, or unusual entry points. Maybe you need a door that can handle constant use, like in a busy logistics hub where trucks are loading and unloading 24/7. Or perhaps you have specific safety requirements, like fire resistance or blast protection. In all these cases, a custom size factory door isn't a luxury—it's a necessity.
Quick reality check: A survey by the Industrial Door Manufacturers Association found that 68% of facility managers reported issues with standard doors within the first year of installation, including misalignment, air leakage, and difficulty operating heavy machinery through them. Custom doors? That number drops to just 12%.
At Coloria, we've been in the building materials game for decades, and we've learned a thing or two about what industrial spaces really need. We're not just a windows & doors supplier —we're a one-stop architectural solution provider . That means when you come to us for a custom size factory door, you're not getting a cookie-cutter product. You're getting a solution that's designed from the ground up to fit your space, your workflow, and your goals.
Let's break down why custom doors from Coloria make sense for your industrial space:
No two factories are the same, so why should their doors be? Our team starts by conducting a detailed assessment of your facility. We measure not just the width and height of the opening, but also factors like floor levelness, wall material, and surrounding infrastructure. Need a door that's 12 feet wide to fit a specific conveyor belt? Or 18 feet tall to accommodate a forklift with a raised load? No problem. We'll design it to the exact inch, ensuring a snug fit that eliminates gaps, reduces energy loss, and prevents operational hiccups.
Industrial doors take a beating. They're exposed to harsh chemicals, heavy impacts, extreme temperatures, and constant use. That's why we offer a range of materials tailored to different environments. Here's a quick look at some of our most popular options:
| Material | Best For | Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Heavy-Duty Steel | High-traffic areas, warehouses, manufacturing plants | Durable, impact-resistant, secure against break-ins |
| WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) | Food processing, pharmaceutical facilities, clean rooms | Moisture-resistant, easy to clean, eco-friendly |
| Fire-Resistant Composite | Chemical plants, power stations, facilities with fire risks | Meets strict fire safety standards (up to 4-hour fire rating) |
| Aluminum Alloy | Climate-controlled spaces, logistics hubs | Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, energy-efficient |
For example, if you're running a chemical plant, a fire-resistant building material door isn't just a good idea—it's often a legal requirement. Our fire-resistant composite doors are tested to withstand extreme heat and prevent the spread of flames, giving your team precious time to evacuate in an emergency. On the flip side, if you're in the food industry, our WPC doors are non-porous, so they won't harbor bacteria, and they're easy to sanitize—perfect for maintaining strict hygiene standards.
A custom door isn't just about size and material—it's about adding features that make your daily operations smoother. Need a door that opens automatically when a truck approaches? We can integrate motion sensors or RFID technology. Want to reduce energy costs? We'll add insulated panels and weatherstripping to keep conditioned air in and the elements out. Concerned about security? We can include heavy-duty locks, access control systems, or even bullet-resistant glass.
One of our clients, a large automotive parts manufacturer in Saudi Arabia, came to us with a problem: their existing standard doors were slow to open and close, causing bottlenecks in their production line. We designed custom sliding doors with high-speed motors that cut opening time by 60%, reducing wait times for forklifts and trucks. The result? A 15% increase in daily throughput—and a much happier operations team.
We get it—ordering a custom door might sound complicated, but we've streamlined the process to make it as easy as possible. Here's how it works:
In today's world, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's a business imperative. At Coloria, we're committed to supporting global efforts like the "double carbon" goal, and that includes making our doors as eco-friendly as possible. Many of our materials, like WPC, are made from recycled plastic and wood fibers, reducing waste and reliance on virgin resources. Our insulated doors also help lower energy consumption by keeping heating and cooling costs down, which is good for both your bottom line and the planet.
We're also proud to support Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, which emphasizes sustainable development and local job creation. By investing in local talent and manufacturing, we're not just building doors—we're building a more sustainable future for the communities we serve.
There are plenty of door suppliers out there, but here's why we stand out:
Don't just take our word for it—let's look at a few real-world examples of how our custom factory doors have made a difference:
A large logistics company in Riyadh was struggling with their loading bay doors. The standard doors they'd installed were too narrow for their new fleet of larger trucks, leading to delays and damage to the doors. We designed custom 14-foot-wide hydraulic doors with reinforced frames to handle the heavier load. The result? Loading times decreased by 25%, and door maintenance costs dropped by 40% in the first year.
A pharmaceutical plant needed doors that could maintain strict temperature control in their storage areas. Standard doors were letting in warm air, causing fluctuations that put their products at risk. We installed custom insulated WPC doors with airtight seals and automatic closing mechanisms. The new doors reduced temperature variations by 90%, ensuring compliance with industry regulations and protecting their valuable inventory.
A metal fabrication facility was dealing with frequent door breakdowns due to heavy machinery collisions. We designed custom steel doors with impact-resistant panels and a hydraulic buffer system to absorb shocks. Since installation, they've had zero door failures, saving them thousands in repair costs and downtime.
We get it—custom doors might have a higher upfront cost than standard ones. But think about the long-term benefits: fewer repairs, lower energy bills, increased efficiency, and improved safety. When you factor in all these savings, custom doors often pay for themselves within a year or two.
Plus, a well-designed door is an investment in your facility's productivity. When your doors work seamlessly with your workflow, your team can focus on what they do best—producing quality products and serving your customers—instead of dealing with door-related headaches.
Your industrial space is unique, and your doors should be too. Whether you need a door that's extra wide, extra tall, fire-resistant, or packed with smart features, Coloria has the expertise to make it happen. We're not just selling doors—we're helping you build a more efficient, safe, and sustainable facility.
So why settle for a door that's "close enough" when you can have one that's perfect? Let's work together to design a custom size factory door that fits your space like a glove. After all, your industrial space deserves nothing less.
