Industrial roller shutters are designed for everyday operation in industrial facilities, production halls and warehouses. When opened, the shutter curtain rolls onto a shaft positioned above the building opening, making efficient use of the available space and eliminating the need for lateral clearance.
These shutters are also suitable for large building openings and facilities where it is essential to keep the area around the opening unobstructed, such as industrial halls equipped with overhead cranes, forklifts or lifting platforms.
The shutter curtain consists of horizontal slats that roll onto a shaft installed above the building opening.
The curtain moves within side guide rails and is secured against disengagement.
The shutters can be manufactured with steel or aluminium slats, available in insulated or non-insulated configurations. Depending on the project requirements, glazed slats and various surface finishes are also available.
Depending on the project requirements, the shutters can be equipped with:
The ZAK system is a floating shaft system designed to optimise the winding of the shutter curtain.
The industrial roller shutter system is based on insulated or non-insulated slats that roll onto a shaft positioned above the building opening. The shaft is driven by an electric motor and equipped with a safety catch device to prevent uncontrolled movement of the shutter curtain.
The shutter can also be equipped with the ZAK floating shaft system, which moves the shaft horizontally away from the wall to compensate for changes in the diameter of the rolled-up shutter curtain during opening and closing.
The shutter curtain is guided within side guide rails fitted with brushes and secured against disengagement.
The shutter curtain is available in various materials and surface finishes:
The shutter curtain can be manufactured using different types of slats:
Various glazing options are available for both insulated and non-insulated slats.
Industrial roller shutters are generally equipped with an electric drive.
Manual operation is also available for specific applications, particularly:
Manually operated shutters feature a simple operating mechanism using a manual operating rod to roll up the shutter curtain. For security against unauthorised entry, the shutter can be secured using a double-bit lock with four levers and two locking rods.
Spiral springs compensate for the weight of the shutter curtain, facilitating manual operation.
Stop springs secure the shutter curtain in its upper end position.
Shutters with a height of less than 2.5 m are equipped with an anti-entrapment safety device to reduce the risk of fingers or other objects being drawn into the winding mechanism.
Industrial roller shutters can be installed in several configurations, depending on the building structure and available space.
Behind the Opening – Internal Wall Installation
The shutter is mounted behind the building opening, on the interior wall.
In Front of the Opening – Façade Installation
The shutter is mounted on the exterior façade. This installation method is particularly suitable when:
For external installation, the shutter curtain housing is manufactured from galvanised steel sheet or stainless steel, protecting the shutter curtain against weather conditions and dust.
Within the Opening – Reveal Installation
The shutter is installed directly within the building opening.
This configuration reduces the clear passage width and height of the opening.
An integrated personnel door can be incorporated into a roller shutter system only when combined with a fixed panel.
The door infill has the same visual appearance as the roller shutter or roller grille, ensuring a consistent design.
A tubular frame in the lower section provides high dimensional stability.
Both the fixed panel and the adjoining roller shutter curtain are manufactured using the same profiles.
Industrial roller shutters are installed within, behind or in front of a fully finished building opening, with the finished floor already in place.
Before installation begins, the site must be prepared in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
The following requirements must be met:
Important Installation Note
No electrical wiring, water pipes, heating pipes or other building services may be installed within the wall at the locations where the shutter guide rails and shaft support brackets are to be fixed.
If any such installations are present, consultation with a company technician is required before installation.
