Galvanised Shutter

Here is an original opening, currently housing a sectional overhead door. 

To aid traffic flow, a wider opening was required.  For this reason; cutting through cladding, purlings and steel work was necessary.

In addition; existing steel bollards had to be removed.

 

Sectional Overhead Doors are attractive looking and provide good insulation if needed.  However; installation is expensive and maintenance, repair or replacement even more so.

With this in mind; a galvanised shutter door was recommended, as a more suitable and cost effective option.

To make room for the larger opening; the cladding was cut through and the small steels, purlings and flashings were removed.

With the opening widened back to the main supporting steels; commencement of the galvanised shutter installation was underway.

Because of the windy location of the opening, the shutter was constructed using a 20g heavy duty curtain.

In addition; windlocks were added to the curtain and guides; this helps hold the curtain in place during strong gusts.

Also; new bollards were added to the corners, to help protect the door from impact damage.
