Airlift Speed?

What speed should I run my airlift doors? I have a LW4000 and entrance and exit doors. Right now entrance is a 40. Exit at 50 to make up for a 2 inch gap between the floor and door. My exit door only runs in cold temps. Does this sound good?

Thanks!
 
I find that the speeds you are running are good because of the fact that the distance of "coast" you have is less after the motor stops than if you run the at the higher speeds. Which makes for a more consistent stopping point at the top and bottom. If you are having to speed up the door to make up gaps at the bottom then you will need to reset your lower limit switch. Unless you want to run the exit door faster that is. I have also found the doors don't run as free when the are cold which may take some fine tuning from season to season.
