Pilgrim's Gets Rid of Old Doors for Goff's Doors
MAY 16, 2024 | IN DOORS | BY KARA BORGARDT
The challenge? Their old doors failed. The solution? Installing Goff’s doors! Swapping out their old doors for some of our wash down doors in their pet food facility was a smart decision for Pilgrim’s! The doors they chose for their facility were our Clean Guard wash down door and our Harsh Guard door made for tougher environments.
What initially drew James Rickard, IE Specialist Pet Food at Pilgrims, to our doors was the simplicity of our doors, the ease of troubleshooting and the parts available that other companies didn’t seem to have. After getting these doors installed, they were just as pleased with not only the doors, but our company as a whole. “Working with Goff’s has been great!” says James.
“I have also been impressed with the tech support, Pete and the crew are extremely knowledgable and are very good at explaining simple troubleshooting steps and tips no matter experience level”. Goff’s exceptional customer care and tech support team is available to answer any questions you have at any time.
Pilgrim's already has plans to use Goff's as their solution for other projects in the near future.
About these doors:

Ready for your toughest environments, Harsh Guard is also built with corrosion resistant materials, like stainless steel and aluminum, and is backed by our strong warranty. This wash down door is designed to stand the test of time, keeping you up and running.

Change and Replace Door Panels with Ease
It’s that time of year! You’ve enjoyed the fresh air from your G1 Bug Screen Doors at your loading dock, but now it is getting a little chilly. Did you know that with Goff’s vinyl doors, you can easily change and replace door panels? Whether you need to swap panels because a forklift went through one of the sections, you want to switch out bug mesh for solid vinyl, or you just want to do a little “feng shui” and change up your colors, changing and replacing a panel is simple!
Replacing your door panel.
If someone in your facility damages a panel for any reason, you can give Goff’s a call and order a replacement. The benefit to a Goff’s door is that rather than replacing an entire door like other company’s will require you to do, you simply have to replace one section.
To replace your door panel, all you need is a screw driver and your replacement panel! Locate the wind bar above the panel you are replacing and remove one of the end caps. Next, you will pull out that section and any panels below it by simply sliding the material out, replace the panel, then slide the panels back into place. Snap the end cap back on, return the door web into the side guides and you’re all set!
Another reason to replace your door panels.
Replacing your door panel when damage occurs is the obvious, and possibly the most common reason. However, utilizing the full benefits of your G1 Dock Door will have you leaving the overhead door in the upright position and the bug door closed, to reap the rewards of fresh air and shade factor. When the cooler months hit, you may still like the accessibility of quickly opening and shutting your vinyl door so you might consider swapping mesh panels for solid vinyl. This will help you keep your loading dock area a little warmer but still allow you to function efficiently.
Pro tip!
Here’s a little pro tip for those companies that like an extra speedy panel replacement and limited downtime: keep extra panels on hand! When ordering your next vinyl door, grab a couple extra panels cut to size. You can keep these on a shelf, and if damage occurs or you want to swap for the season, you’ll be ready to go!

Mesh Screens to Enjoy Your Deck
Have a crazy customer request? We can help.
Enjoying the outdoors won’t be a problem for this lake house owner! The problem this customer was facing, was that the deck on their lake house needed a little more protection from the sun during the day, and the mosquitos at night. “A simple screen room would have worked, but lacked the ability to move up and out of the way to fully enjoy the view of the lake,” says our lake house owner. “Goff’s bug screen door solved all of our problems and more!”
Our mesh screen door provides a little extra shade, 65% of shade to be exact, during the day, and keeps the bugs away at night. Whether these doors are open or closed, the beautiful view of the lake they have will never be obstructed. “I said it before, but I am most impressed with Goff’s ability to meet our exact needs. They took a primarily industrial product, and tailored it perfectly to our application,” says our homeowner who was looking to improve how their family enjoys their lake house property.
The fact that the door has the ability to roll up and down at their convenience was also a plus for this customer. It made it very easy to get in and out of the deck area with just the press of a button. “I am a happier home owner because of the features this mesh screen provides,” they stated.
“Goff's provided everything we could have hoped, while simultaneously improving the aesthetic of our property, which most companies could not provide.”
“Goff’s flexibility to meet our exact needs was second-to-none. We gave them exact measurements and they nailed it,” they stated. We’re happy we could create this custom door layout to meet their sight-line requests so their view wouldn’t be compromised. “The functionality is great, however what truly stood out to me was the design and aesthetic of the doors. The black mesh really integrates well into the house and does not appear industrial in our application. It looks very sleek and minimal,” our happy customer says.

A Quick Guide to Choosing Quality Strip Doors
Working with strip doors, industrial teams can create the ideal separation between their working spaces. However, oftentimes leaders at industrial facilities don’t have time to review the marketplace and pinpoint their ideal product. They need guidance from trusted leaders within the industrial partition manufacturing marketplace, and that’s why they turn to experts such as our team here at Goff’s Enterprises, Inc. In this latest post, we’ll highlight our guide to choosing quality strip doors.
Choose an Experienced Manufacturer of Strip Doors
Strip doors must be built according to strict specifications to meet the highest of quality requirements within industrial facilities. Therefore, it’s critical that your team works with a manufacturer that has experience in the market. They should be able to highlight their experience and the value their products have had within client facilities.
Size the Product Carefully
As a result of faulty sizing, your project could be slowed down or even halted. Make sure you coordinate carefully with the manufacturer and ensure they understand the sizing and application restrictions in place within your facility before beginning the building process.
Take a Warranty
When purchasing the product, a warranty will be required to secure the value for your investment. Most companies will have a warranty available to purchase but at Goff’s ours comes standard. Regardless of manufacturer’s experience, a warranty will help protect your team in case of product failure. Having the warranty at your disposal will ensure you’re not left without recourse should the structural value of the system deteriorate sooner than expected.
Choose a Product for Low Maintenance
The maintenance of strip doors is a leading consideration before the purchase is completed. How much time is your team prepared to dedicate to the care process? Make sure you choose a product with simple maintenance instructions to ensure high durability performance that allows your team members to focus solely on their working performance.

G1 Bug Screen Doors for the Home
Doors aren't just for businesses...
Goff’s G1 Bug Screen Doors are the best way to prevent birds, bugs and intruders, while allowing fresh airflow and a shade factor. Our team specializes in the production of bug screen roll-up doors, helping keep your space clean & comfortable, even at home!
The goal for this Wisconsin home owner was to block out the wind from the covered deck while still being able to see out to enjoy their outdoor living space. “The space seemed tight to mount the screen door to…” said the customer who installed these doors, but “we have sold commercial screen doors and knew this would work.” It ended up working well! What stood out the most to this customer about our G1 screen door was the fine mesh it is constructed with, the fact that it allows them to see out, while still blocking the wind, and that it can be opened and closed at their convenience.
The customer shared that they have been impressed with the process in working with our sales team. “It was easy to communicate exact measurements and how we wanted it to work”.
“We are able to enjoy our deck more.”
The customer was not only happy that our screen doors keep the wind from blowing in during the warm month, but also snow in the cooler months allowing them to enjoy their deck all year round. Our mesh can help block bugs, wind, and even snow in some cases! A great feature of our doors is that the panels can easily be swapped out depending on the application. This feature stood out to this customer, allowing them to swap out their mesh panels for solid ones if needed in the winter. Our screen doors have helped them “enjoy the deck more”.

Plug And Play Industrial Doors are Super Easy To Activate
There are many reasons that Goff’s G1 Bug Screen Doors are the best value dock door you can buy. It improves comfort and reduces energy costs. It is built to withstand your daily warehouse activities. Additionally, it protects your facility from bugs, birds, and intruders. Guess what else it does? Goff’s G1 Doors make installation a breeze especially with the optional feature making them plug and play industrial doors.
Installation is easy as 1-2-3!
G1 Bug Screens reduce installation time and downtime because installation is just that easy. G1 Doors always come pre-assembled. Forget the other guy’s bag of loose parts. We pre-assemble every door’s major components to ensure the highest quality standards. When the door is delivered, all you have to do is mount the header, easily secure your door tracks, and attach your control system. Check out the installation video at the link below for more details.
Plug and play industrial doors.
When it comes to control systems, Goff’s has options! The toggle switch comes standard on all powered G1 Bug Screen Doors. With the standard option, your installer or electrician will handle the wiring to and from the toggle switch to get your door up and running. However, upgrade to the Plug and Play option to simplify installation and electrical work. No need to hire a costly electrician because the Plug and Play provides you with a pre-wired motor to toggle switch connection. Simply mount the switchbox and plug into an outlet and you’re good to go!
Choose from additional control options.
If the toggle switch option isn’t what you’re looking for, Goff’s offers many control options to choose from to fit your facility’s need. Manual systems such as the pull cord, hand crank, chain hoist, and spring assist all feature easy ways that a pedestrian would manually open the door with. Choose a motorized option with the toggle switch or NEMA 1 (3) button controller for faster activation. Additionally, we offer a RF with remote operation for forklift and vehicle drivers.

How Bug Doors Overcome Loading Dock Challenges
When part of your business relies on consistently moving products in and out of your loading dock, your choice in door can make a huge impact on profits and productivity. Goff’s bug doors on your loading dock can solve plenty of common problems you are experiencing.
Here’s 4 loading dock problems that can be solved with bug doors:
1. Productivity loss from opening and closing the door all day
Metal doors can be extremely slow to open and close and could even become a bottleneck to operations. After all, you don’t want to just leave the door open all day. However, our mesh bug doors can be fitted with high-powered motors that allow them to open and close within seconds to maximize productivity in your facility.
2. Choosing between ventilation and insects
Warehouses can easily become stuffy and difficult to work in, potentially making it difficult for your employees to work through if the temperatures are high enough. The problem is trying to achieve ventilation without letting bugs, pests and other potential contaminants into your warehouse. Bug doors are made to block those insects, while allowing natural airflow into your facility, creating a more comfortable work environment for your employees.
3. High energy costs
Another big bonus to utilizing bug doors in your loading dock is that they can significantly lower energy costs, particularly where air conditioning is concerned. The airflow our doors provide can reduce the need to run climate control within the warehouse, ultimately leading to lower energy bills. Not to mention our mesh provides a 65% shade factor eliminating sun exposure.
4. Expensive damage to doors
If, for example, a forklift accidentally runs into a heavy metal door, that’s going to leave a mark. The forklift, the door, or even both could be damaged, and that will get expensive to fix. Goff’s bug doors are designed to easily pop off their rails if an impact occurs and will auto reset itself back into its tracks. If damage happens to occur, swapping panels is easy and inexpensive to do on Goff’s doors.
