SPRING LOADED

Roller Shutters usually installed mainly over doorways or
Serveries are raised up and down by lifting and lowering the
curtain by hand. The roller shutter has a spring in the barrel
which helps lifting the shutter. As standard a central bottom
lath lock is provided which has a key in the bottom lath and
bolts shoot into the guides rails at each side. The Bottom
lath lock can be operated from both sides but has a secure
and non-secure side to the lock. Optional bullet locks are
available which are pins that go through the guide rails each side.

ELECTRIC - (N.B. minimum shutter width 750mm)

Electric shutters are usually fitted on larger openings where
Manual Operation is not suitable or where the operator
requires an easy, clean and user friendly type of operation.
Single phase tubular motors are enclosed within the barrel
giving full protection from the elements. Electric Roller
Shutters can be controlled individually or grouped to one
controller. The controllers available include internal rocker
switch, security key switch or Remote Control. Manual
overrides are available on Electric Roller Shutters which
allow the shutter to be operated when the power to the
shutter has failed.

The RA8 Roller Shutter is available in the following standard colours. Band A, Band and Band C are an additional cost.
