- Openings to 8 000mm wide
- 0.8mm–1.2mm galvanised slat
- Chain hoist or motorised
Midrand sits on the main logistics corridor through Gauteng, and the industrial ground reflects it. Commercia, Clayville and Olifantsfontein carry the manufacturing and distribution buildings, and Corporate Park and Randjespark the warehousing behind the office frontages. The doors on those buildings are production equipment, not fittings.
How we build industrial roller shutter doors
- Heavy-gauge curtains chosen for the cycle count the opening actually sees, not the opening width.
- Deep guides so a knocked curtain stays in its channel.
- Reinforced bottom rails, because in a Commercia dock the bottom rail is what gets hit.
- Industrial operators with rated duty cycles and chain hoist backup, since a curtain this size cannot be moved by hand without one.
- Safety edges and photocells wherever forklifts and people share the opening.
Sizing an industrial roller shutter door to the duty
Tell us how many times a day the opening is used and what moves through it. A goods-in door at a Clayville distribution unit doing a hundred and fifty cycles a shift is a different build from a workshop bay opened a dozen times, even at identical dimensions. Specifying from size alone is why commercial doors fail early in industrial jobs.
Impact resistance in industrial roller shutter doors
Vehicle contact is not an accident on a busy dock, it is a certainty over a few years. We build so impact damage is repairable: slats replaceable individually, bottom rails replaceable without a new curtain, guides that can be straightened or swapped.
Industrial roller shutter doors in older Midrand buildings
Much of the Olifantsfontein and older Clayville stock predates modern door hardware. Openings are out of square, lintels uneven, and the existing box was fitted by a company that no longer exists. We survey the structure and add steel where the lintel will not carry a large-span box, priced in the quotation. Where the original profile is obsolete we fabricate to match.
Installing industrial roller shutter doors around production
We phase multi-bay sites so the building keeps operating, plan changeovers around dispatch times, and bring a temporary closure so an opening is never left unsecured overnight. Induction, permits and access clearance are dealt with before the team arrives.
Servicing industrial roller shutter doors
We service on a schedule matched to the duty, and on multi-door Midrand sites we standardise operators over time and hold your common spares so a failure is a same-shift repair rather than a wait for a part.
