Curtain
Is constructed of 1.6 x 98mm clear polycarbonate slats and connected by tough extruded aluminium slats of 16mm x 30mm to form a continuous hinge. Each connecting slat is fitted with specially moulded end clips, which prevent lateral movement offering a smooth and quiet operation.
Ventilation (optional):
The polycarbonate slats are pierced with 150mm wide x 30mm high rectangular slots to allow circulation in and out of a designated area.
Side Guides
Manufactured from 54mm x 32mm extruded aluminium for bulkhead installations; or
Manufactured from 76mm x 32mm extruded aluminium for pelmet box installations.
Both tracks have a hollow section for concealing fixings.
Both tracks are fitted with a nylofelt buffer for a quiet and smooth operation.
Both allow a shutter penetration of up to 40mm deep for improved security.
Drum
Is constructed of a 70mm galvanised octagonal axle with 130mm adaptor rings.
Bottom Rail
Is constructed from 85mm x 17mm extruded aluminium section with an extruded backing plate, which conceals a two-way mortice lock, and locking bars.
An optional bottom foot can be added in flat surfaces or a tapered bottom rail can be manufactured in most instances for uneven surfaces.
Locking
25mm x 3mm steel flat bars are housed inside an extruded aluminium section across the entire width of the shutter, anchoring deep into the side guides when activated. The locking mechanism is controlled by a two-way double turn mortice lock that can be positioned at the base or waist height for ease of use.
Motorisation
Can be used on almost any size polycarbonate roller shutter opening and recommended on larger openings. Space saving direct drive tubular motors (slide into the axle) can be controlled by a toggle switch, key switch or remote control.
Multiple doors can be operated by a single remote control or with a centrally mounted gang switch.
Manual Override & Battery Back Up
Manual override motors are available to provide access to a retailer in case of power failure.
Alternately UPS systems are strongly recommended particularly where it is the only form of egress. These clever battery packs convert 24 volt to 240 volt power in case of power failure and do not enter into sleep mode when power fails, allowing a shop owner complete peace of mind.
