What to specify
- Electric drive. Tubular or external geared motors with a manual override for power cuts.
- Controls. Buttons, key switches, remotes, induction loops or radar to suit your traffic.
- Weather seals. Seals along the guides, head and bottom rail stop wind-driven rain and cold air getting in.
- Foam-filled laths. Double-skin laths with a polyurethane core cut heat loss compared with single skin.
- Wind locks. On exposed elevations, wind locks hook the laths into the guides so gusts cannot push the curtain out.

- Renewing worn guide brushes, the head seal and the bottom-rail seal on an insulated roller door that lets in draughts.
