What to specify

Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
Electric drive. Motor inside the barrel or on its end, with a chain or handle so the door still opens without power.
Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
Foam-filled laths. Each lath has two metal skins with insulating foam between them, so the curtain holds heat far better.
