Features and benefits
Roller curtain
The shutter curtain is constructed from cold rolled galvanised steel laths (76 mm), of suitable gauge to suit the application. Each lath is retained by nylon, pressed steel or malleable iron endlocks fixed and secured by steel rivets. Cast iron wind locks are fitted to help prevent the curtain being forced out of guides during high winds, as and when required.
Side guides and angles
A purpose cold-rolled mild steel section of depths ranging from 65 mm to 100 mm, dependent upon the application. Wind lock guide section to be used as and when required. Galvanised steel angles of suitable size and thickness are supplied to support the side guides and to form a secure fixing to the structure.
Bottom rail
A rigid inverted T section bottom rail, formed from either a cold rolled galvanised section, or mild steel angles, is bolted back to back, depending on the width of the shutter. Specially designed tapered bottom rails can be supplied to suit sloping floors at additional cost.
Roller barrel
The roller barrel is constructed from a mild steel tube of suitable outside diameter and wall thickness to suit the shutter application. The barrel encases helical springs, which are securely fitted inside the barrel, and are supported by purpose-made cast iron or SG iron castings. The springs counter-balance the shutter.
Door locking
A pressed steel locking box is fitted to the side guide to secure the hand chain when the door is not in use, and is designed to accept the clients own security padlock – additional locking can be provided as an optional extra.
Finish
Side guides, supporting angles and door curtain are galvanised. Non-galvanised sections are primer painted. Powder coated finish is optional and can be provided at extra cost. Perforated laths can be supplied at additional cost and are supplied galvanised unless specified otherwise.
Operation
Operation for hand chain roller shutters is via a continuous galvanised steel hauling chain, connected to a suitable reduction chain or gear reduction system.
