A wicket access door can be fitted to most roller shutter doors. These are used for personnel access or as an emergency escape route. The standard dimensions are 685mm wide x 1830mm high and can be specified as inward or outward opening and as located on the left or right hand side.
A flexible neoprene weather strip attached to the bottom rail provides contact with the floor to compensate for irregularities and to prevent penetration of water.
Note: End locks are not applicable to grille products.
Nylon or malleable iron end locks are fitted on every alternate slat on either side of the roller shutter curtain. The purpose of this is as follows:
To prevent lateral movement of slats, which is a major cause of shutters jamming
To ensure silent and smooth operation of the roller shutter
To prevent having to use grease or any other lubricant in the guides
To extend the life of the slats by preventing friction in the guides
A centre lock is a key operated barrel lock situated in the centre of the T-Bar. Locking bars slide horizontally into slots provided in the two channel guides. This is applicable to doors up to 2500mm in width. Roller shutters over 2500mm wide require two locks positioned on either side.
Slide bolts are situated on either side of the T-Section and slide into slots provided in the two channel guides that can be padlocked for extra security. Slide bolt covers are an optional extra.
