Why Buy the Manual Chain Operated Roller Shutters?

Tough, Reliable & Power-Free Security for Industrial and Commercial Spaces

The Manual Chain Operated Roller Shutter Door is a durable, cost-effective solution for securing large commercial and industrial openings without the need for electricity. Operated using a manual hand chain system, this shutter is designed for low-maintenance reliability in environments where simplicity, independence from power sources, and robust physical protection are key.

Perfect for warehouses, loading bays, agricultural buildings, plant rooms, and service yards, this shutter offers straightforward operation and long-term performance—even in remote or utility-constrained locations.

Information

Security Features

  •    Single Skin Scrolled Steel Slat: Available in solid, punched (vision), or perforated designs to suit visibility and airflow requirements.
  •   Robust Construction: Traditional-style steel roller shutter with a scrolled slat profile ensures strength and reliability for medium-security applications.
  •   Shoot Bolts (Optional): Can be added to guide rails for extra security on manual shutters.
  •   Bullet Locks Available: Optional bullet locks can be fitted for enhanced manual security
     

Safety Features

  •    Counterbalance Spring System: Ensures controlled, smooth raising and lowering of the shutter via the manual chain mechanism.
  •   Spring Load Adjustment: Final adjustment of spring loading is done post-installation for optimal safety and function.
  •   Installation Versatility: Can be fitted both internally and externally, offering flexible safety placement depending on the building structure
     

Insulation & Energy Efficiency

  •    Steel Laths: While focused on strength, the 75c offers basic environmental separation; however, it is not primarily insulated.
  •   Slat Options:
    •       22g Solid Steel: 10 kg/m²
    •       20g Solid Steel: 12 kg/m²
    •       Vision Slats: 8 kg/m²
    •       These weights and densities provide a basic barrier against airflow, contributing to reduced draughts in closed conditions

    

Operation & Controls

  •    Manual Chain Operation: Ideal for locations without power or where electric operation is not viable.
  •   Spring & Lock System: Provides smooth manual operation with controlled motion and secure locking via shoot bolts and optional bullet locks.
