Pickets

Galvanised rolled steel structural box sections fitted with precision hardened steel ball bearing roller at the top and a long-life, hard-wearing guide at the bottom.

Lattice Bars

Shutter Leaves

229mm-wide galvanised mild steel with reinforcing ribs.

The vertical edges are rolled to form a round section for hard wearing hinging purposes.

The rear edge of the shutter leaves hinge within the picket section. The front edges of the shutter leaves connect and hinge within a galvanised rolled steel front hinge retaining section. The leaves can be removed and replaced without dismantling the shutter.

Door Front

In addition the motor incorporates a floor level manual override facility as standard, for use in the event of a power failure. All doors are operated by panel mounted push button controls, which are mounted at low level to within 500mm of the opening on the motor side of the door at low level.
