Aluminium Roller Shutter Garage Door

A rolling curtain of slats: 80 mm slat height on a 20 mm leaf.

ALUMINIUM ROLLER SHUTTER GARAGE DOOR

A slatted curtain

The roller shutter garage door is a curtain of aluminium slats rather than a hinged or sectional leaf. The slats interlock into a rolling face that travels in side guides and rolls up into a head box above the opening. Because the door rolls, it needs no swing space in front of the garage and no leaf standing beside the wall, which suits a tight frontage or a garage that opens straight onto a road. The slat set is drawn from the catalog section, and the door is built to the opening from that set.

The scenes used on this page are catalogue design renderings. They show the rolled curtain and the head box; the section drawings carry the slat sizes.

Key features

Four things it brings to the opening

01Slats at 80 mmThe curtain is made from slats at 80 mm height, so the rolled curtain stays compact in the head box.
02Slat wall at 1.0 mmEach slat carries a 1.0 mm wall, which gives the curtain its shape and keeps it rigid across the width.
03Leaf thickness 20 mmThe door leaf thickness is 20 mm, which sets the depth of the slat set in the guide and the head box.
04Five finishesAntique bronze, oak wood grain, obsidian black, milky white and deep grey are the catalogued finishes.

Slat and leaf sizes

The slat carries a 1.0 mm wall and stands 80 mm high, and the door leaf thickness is 20 mm. Those three sizes set the way the curtain works: the 1.0 mm wall gives each slat its shape and keeps it rigid across the width, the 80 mm height fixes how many slats the opening takes and how compact the rolled curtain is in the head box, and the 20 mm leaf thickness sets the depth the slat set needs in the guide and the box. The slats interlock so the curtain holds together as it rolls and unrolls.

Finishes

Five finishes are catalogued for the roller shutter: antique bronze, oak wood grain, obsidian black, milky white and deep grey. The range runs from the warm bronze and the oak print to the plain black, white and grey, so a shutter can be matched to a rendered frontage, a timber door or a metal facade. Oak wood grain is a print over the aluminium, so the face carries the tone of timber with the behaviour of metal. Samples of the actual finish are available, and the exact finish is fixed against the swatch before the order is confirmed.

Operation and supply

The shutter rolls by hand or on the opener line, which serves the whole garage range, so the same drive and control set can move a roller shutter as it moves a sectional leaf. The curtain rolls into a head box above the opening, and the box size and the guide set are quoted against the opening. The slats are 6063-T5 primary aluminium, extruded in-house on the same lines as the window and door ranges. Shutters go out on the standard OEM terms: private-label packing, project documentation and export-standard containers, with the dimensional pack for the opening sent with the quotation. A slat sample in the chosen finish is available before the order is placed, and the box size and the guide set are confirmed against the opening.
