When choosing an automatic rolling shutter, consider the shopfront or garage opening, frequency of use, installation space and security requirements. The shutter profile and motor should be selected using these project details.
Choosing an Automatic Rolling Shutter: Key Measurements and Considerations overview
Opening dimensions and installation space
Measure the width and height, along with the space above the opening for the shutter box, side-guide clearances and floor conditions. The existing façade and electrical supply should also be included in the installation plan.
Materials and operation
Choose the shutter profile and motor to suit the intended use and opening dimensions. Daily operating cycles and the control method help determine the motor capacity.
Safe operation
Keep the shutter’s path clear. Do not walk beneath it while it is moving or force it if it behaves unusually. Leave installation, motor adjustments and maintenance to qualified service personnel.
