Hoffman Manufacturing, Inc. is a dynamic, family-owned company located in north Idaho. Specializing in Mine Door & Bulkhead systems for underground ventilation control, we currently have products in 27-states and 6-countries.
Founded in 2008, HMFG moved into a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in October, 2023. Situated on 18 acres along highway 95 in North Idaho, HMFG is well positioned for the growing demand in ventilation control and structural fabrication within the underground mining industry. Equipment & facility upgrades enhance our commitment to industry-leading quality and lead times.
HMFG provides complete structural steel fabrication and manufacturing services. We employ an experienced staff of Engineers, Certified Welders, Machinists, Laborers, Painters, and Industrial Mechanics. We utilize the latest in 3D modeling & simulation software during the design phase to ensure superior quality from start to finish. HMFG’s location & size allow us to offer competitive pricing to our customers, improving their CAPEX.
Bifold door systems are the most commonly used in underground mining. The equalized design uses the air pressure to assist in operating the doors. Because panels swing in opposite directions, there isn’t an imbalance of pressure when the doors operate. This ensures smooth & safe operation, even with a pressure differential across the door. Bifold systems are a great option for locations with up to 10” WG pressure.
When it comes to ensuring safety, durability, and performance, nothing beats our HP Door Systems. Engineered with precision and built to withstand the toughest conditions, HP Door Systems offer unparalleled strength and reliability in underground mining applications. With an impressive 20" WG (Water Gauge) pressure rating, these doors are designed to endure high-pressure environments, making them the ideal choice for mining operations requiring robust solutions.
When it comes to optimizing airflow and ventilation in underground mines, Louver Regulator Bulkheads offer the perfect blend of efficiency, durability, and control. These regulators play a critical role in managing ventilation, optimizing air distribution, and enhancing overall environmental control for a safer work environment.
When managing Bifold or HP mine door systems, precision and reliability are paramount. PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) Control Systems offer advanced automation and seamless control for these specialized door solutions. Designed to enhance safety, efficiency, and ease of operation, PLC control systems are the backbone of our Mine Door Systems.
Modular bulkhead systems are used to control underground ventilation systems in areas where traditional door systems may not be needed. These areas include cross-cut drifts, vent raises, booster fan locations, fuel bays, etc. As mines progress and ventilation needs change, modular bulkheads may be changed accordingly by simply changing out the individual panels.
While our bifold and high pressure door systems provide equipment passage, personnel doors are a necessary safety feature for foot traffic. We offer both rotary and bifold personnel doors for frequent foot traffic and sliding doors for emergency egress. All are available in our modular airlock system.
