Specialty Air Curtains | Custom Engineered for Sensitive Spaces

At Wilcox Door Service Inc., we provide custom-engineered Specialty Air Curtains for unique environments like clean rooms, healthcare facilities, laboratories, and hazardous locations. Our advanced systems deliver precise airflow control, low-noise operation, and compliance with strict industry standards.

What Is an Industrial Air Curtain?

Specialty air curtains are custom-engineered systems designed for non-standard operating conditions, offering ultra-low noise, corrosion-resistant materials, high static pressure, and slim profiles. They are ideal for facilities requiring precise airflow performance, architectural flexibility, and enhanced filtration or safety standards.

Our specialized lineup includes:

  • ETD (Extra Thin Design) – Minimal-profile air curtains for boutiques, luxury retail, and glass storefronts.

  • SHE (Sanitation Hood Enclosure) – Provides seamless protection for food preparation and healthcare environments.

  • SHA (Slim Heated Application) – Compact design with effective air separation and optional heating for tight clearances.

  • HXP (Hazardous Location Rated) – Explosion-proof models for flammable vapor or particle environments.
