Safety features include a dead-man’s control or torque limit on impulse control, self-holding gears to hold the door in the event of cable or spring failure (Anti-drop safeguard), and an anti-slack cable device.

The door panel is composed of double skinned galvanised steel and HFCF & CFC-free polyurethane rigid foam sandwich core finished with polyester stucco embossed coat on both sides.

  • Internal colour: Off White - RAL 9002
