Hormann V 5015 SEL High Speed Internal Door
The Hormann V 5015 SEL is the smart, economical choice for internal openings where ease of repair and reliable daily operation are key. Unlike standard fabric doors, this model features a unique sectional curtain design held together by aluminium profiles. This means if a forklift accidentally damages the fabric, you can simply slide out and replace the individual segment rather than buying a whole new door curtain—saving you time and money.
Combining this cost-effective design with rapid 1.5 m/s opening speeds and advanced safety features, the V 5015 SEL keeps your internal logistics flowing smoothly and safely.
Key Benefits
- Economical Maintenance: Aluminium profiles allow for inexpensive replacement of individual fabric segments if damaged.
- SoftEdge Anti-Crash: The flexible bottom profile yields on impact and disengages from the guides to prevent structural damage, resetting manually in seconds.
- Draft-Free Stability: Horizontal aluminium bars ensure the curtain hangs flat and travels smoothly, even in busy corridors.
- Non-Contact Safety: Standard integrated light grilles monitor the doorway up to 2.5m high, protecting staff without vulnerable contact sensors.
- Enhanced Visibility: Includes a full-width vision panel as standard, with the option for a second panel on taller doors for improved forklift safety.

Hormann V 5015 SEL High Speed Internal Door
The Cost-Effective Solution for Internal Logistics
The **Hormann V 5015 SEL** is a robust, flexible high-speed door designed specifically for internal applications where draft control and ease of maintenance are paramount. Unlike standard fabric doors that use a single continuous curtain, the V 5015 SEL features a unique sectional curtain design reinforced with aluminium profiles. This structure not only provides excellent stability but also makes the door incredibly economical to maintain.
Engineered for smooth, reliable performance in draft-free internal areas, it ensures rapid access between production zones and warehouses while effectively acting as a barrier against noise, dust, and temperature loss.
Aluminium Profiles: Stability and Easy Repair
The defining feature of the V 5015 SEL is its horizontal aluminium stabilising profiles. These profiles run across the width of the curtain, dividing it into separate segments. This design offers two major advantages:
- Enhanced Stability: The profiles keep the curtain taut and stable during travel, ensuring smooth operation even in areas with minor air movement.
- Inexpensive Maintenance: If a section of the curtain is damaged (e.g., by a forklift fork), you don't need to replace the entire door leaf. Individual fabric segments can be slid out of the aluminium profiles and replaced quickly and cost-effectively, significantly reducing long-term service costs.
SoftEdge Anti-Crash System
In busy industrial environments, collisions are a risk. The V 5015 SEL is equipped with Hormann's proven **SoftEdge bottom profile**. This flexible edge is designed to yield upon impact, disengaging from the side guides to prevent damage to the door structure or the vehicle. The door can then be reset manually in seconds, keeping your logistics moving without the need for expensive repair call-outs.
Advanced Safety as Standard
To protect your workforce and equipment, the door features a standard **Safety Light Grille** integrated into the side elements. This non-contact monitoring system scans the door closing zone up to a height of 2500mm. If a person or obstacle is detected, the door stops and reverses immediately—before any contact occurs. This is superior to traditional photocells or contact-edge sensors, which are often prone to damage.
Visibility and Ventilation Options
The door comes standard with a vision panel section (approx. height 1300mm) to allow visual contact between areas, increasing safety for oncoming traffic. For taller openings (over 3000mm height), an optional second vision panel can be added to further improve visibility for forklift operators.
For specialised applications, such as food production or areas requiring ventilation, the vision panels or curtain segments can be replaced with **insect protection screens**, allowing air to circulate while keeping pests out.
Performance and Control
Powered by the BK 150 FU E H Frequency Converter Control, the V 5015 SEL achieves an opening speed of up to 1.5 m/s. The soft-start and soft-stop technology ensures the door moves quietly and smoothly, reducing mechanical stress and extending the lifespan of the components. The barrel cover is streamlined to the door width, available in galvanised steel or optional powder-coated finishes to match the curtain.
Ideal Applications
- Internal Partitioning: Separating production lines from storage areas.
- Noise Control: Reducing sound transfer between quiet assembly areas and noisy machinery.
- Food Industry: (With optional insect screens) Maintaining hygiene zones while allowing airflow.
Internal Logistics & Warehousing
The Hormann V 5015 SEL is the workhorse of internal logistics. It is designed to act as a rapid partition between different warehouse sections, such as separating the goods-in area from the main storage racking. Its opening speed of 1.5 m/s ensures that forklifts can pass through without stopping, maintaining a high workflow efficiency while preventing drafts from spreading through the building.
High-Traffic "Risk" Areas
In areas where door collisions are a frequent occurrence—such as narrow corridors or busy turning circles—the V 5015 SEL is the smartest financial choice. Thanks to the sectional curtain design, if a forklift fork punctures the fabric, you only need to replace the single damaged segment rather than the entire door curtain. Combined with the SoftEdge anti-crash system, this door is perfect for facilities looking to minimise repair bills and maintenance downtime.
Production Line Partitioning
Manufacturing facilities often need to separate noisy machinery from quiet assembly or packaging zones. The V 5015 SEL, reinforced with aluminium profiles, acts as an effective visual and physical barrier. It reduces noise transfer and prevents airborne dust or debris from migrating between clean and dirty process areas.
Food & Hygiene Areas (Ventilation)
For food production facilities or pharmaceutical plants requiring air circulation without compromising hygiene, the V 5015 SEL can be customised. The standard vision panels or solid fabric sections can be replaced with insect protection screens. This configuration allows fresh air to circulate through the facility while keeping pests, birds, and insects out of sensitive hygiene zones.
Supermarkets & Retail Storage
The door is widely used to separate the "back of house" stockrooms from the retail floor. The anodised aluminium profiles give the door a cleaner, more structured appearance than a standard loose-fabric door, making it aesthetically suitable for semi-public areas where customers might catch a glimpse of the operation.
