Featured Tilt Panel Project
dnata Catering & Retail — Melbourne Airport, VIC
Project Scope: dnata’s AUS$50 million expansion of its Melbourne Airport facility added 5,700m², lifting the total footprint to 16,000m²+ and making it the largest airline catering centre in Victoria, producing 25 million meals a year for 20+ airline customers. Larnec supplied solid core steel-clad personal access doorsets, 120-minute fire-rated doors, custom-sized doorsets for non-standard openings, and a full suite of commercial-grade hardware including panic bars, door closers, spring/chain retainers, upgraded locksets, and perimeter/bottom seals.
Products supplied: Solid core steel-clad PA doors, 120-min fire-rated doorsets, custom sizing, upgraded hardware, glass viewing panels.

Product Highlight
Find the right door
Sentry 100.TP
- Solid-core steel-clad tilt panel door system, pre-hung and retrofit-ready for fast, straightforward installation.
- Featuring a 3 or 4-sided external door jamb and dual quad fastening, it arrives ready to go, with no internal finishing required.
Sentry 200.TP
- A dual-skin, steel-clad door system engineered for pre-cast tilt panel applications.

Engineered Fixing Systems
Improve Structural Confidence
In concrete construction, the frame connection matters just as much as the door itself. Larnec’s dual fastening methodology supports strong anchorage into concrete openings, controlled frame compression, long-term opening stability, and cleaner installation tolerances — particularly in high-use industrial and commercial environments.

Frequently asked questions
What challenges do tilt panel buildings present for PA doors?
Tilt panel construction demands precise opening tolerances and robust fixing methods due to weight, rigidity, and minimal flexibility of concrete panels. Incorrect allowances can affect door alignment and long-term performance.
Are PA doors reinforced for tilt panel installations?
Yes. PA doors specified for tilt panel buildings are supplied with heavy-duty steel frames engineered, cut, and reinforced to suit the door system.
Can tilt panel PA doors be retrofitted after construction?
Yes. Tilt panel PA doors can be installed post-construction, provided the opening is actually engineered, cut, and reinforced to suit the door system.
Do tilt panel PA doors require special sealing?
Yes. Effective perimeter sealing is important to prevent air, water, and dust ingress at the interface between the steel frame and concrete panels.
Are tilt panel PA doors suitable for high-traffic environments?
Yes. They are commonly specified for warehouses, factories, and distribution centres where durability, stability, and repeated daily use are expected.
What door finishes are recommended for tilt panel buildings?
Powder-coated steel finishes are recommended, offering corrosion resistance, impact durability, and long-term performance in industrial environments.
Can tilt panel PA doors support access control systems?
Yes. Tilt panel PA doors can be prepared for electronic locking, access control systems, door closers, and other security hardware as required.
How important is installation accuracy for tilt panel PA doors?
Installation accuracy is critical. Correct alignment and fixing prevent frame distortion, ensure smooth operation, and help maintain door performance over time.
Are fire-rated door options available for tilt panel and pre-cast buildings?
Yes. Larnec can supply both timber plywood and steel-clad fire-rated doorsets to achieve a FRL of 120/120/120.
Can Larnec supply tilt panel doors for large-scale commercial projects?
Yes. Larnec’s tilt panel and pre-cast door solutions are engineered to suit large-scale commercial, industrial, and modular projects, with capacity to support high-volume orders and project-specific specifications.
