Standard Specification

A vertical roller shutter can be operated manually or electrically, featuring either a solid or perforated curtain.

Curtain

The Visionguard 76 shutter curtain is made from 76mm galvanised cold-rolled scroll sections, ensuring strength and durability. Each alternate lath has a steel end lock to prevent lateRAL movement, while wind anchor locks are added for larger doors to enhance stability. The perforated version features micro-circular perforations for a balance of visibility and security, making it perfect for businesses requiring both light and protection.

Bottom Rail

The bottom rail is reinforced with a heavy-duty steel angle, forming an inverted ‘T’ shape to provide added strength and structural integrity. This ensures the shutter’s durability and prevents distortion, even with frequent use. The design also helps maintain smooth operation and resists impacts, enhancing the shutter’s lifespan in commercial settings.

Side Guides

The side guides are made from cold-rolled mild steel channel sections, providing strength and stability for the shutter’s smooth movement. These guides are securely fixed to the opening structure using full-height mild steel angles, ensuring durability and consistent performance. Additionally, wear-resistant strips are included to reduce friction and noise during operation.

Roller Assembly

The roller assembly is constructed from a strong mild steel tube, mounted on bright steel shafts that run in ball races for smooth, frictionless movement. This design reduces wear and ensures quiet operation, improving the shutter's longevity and minimising the need for maintenance over time.
