SUPERIOR - Folding Lift Shutter

Bolton Gate's Superior folding shutters offer all the advantages of a compact folding door but with the addition of an extremely robust design perfected over fifty years. The door is ideally suited to goods lifts where there is a heavy-duty requirement or where the client is seeking greater longevity. Many of the leading companies such as supermarket chains, factories, warehouses etc. specify the door as they recognise the value for money the Superior door offers particularly when ongoing maintenance is considered.

STANDARD SPECIFICATION

Gate Frame
The gate frame is formed from 3mm thick double channel vertical steel pickets interconnected by 6mm thick solid steel lattice bars. The gate frame is top hung from a ball bearing pulley connected to the picket by zinc plated pulley brackets. At the bottom, the frame is fitted with zinc plated bottom guide pieces designed to run in a bottom track.

Leading Edge
The heavy-duty leading edge is fabricated from steel channels with 3mm thick full height sideplates and is prepared for locks, latches or interlock beaks. Number 10 bow handles are fitted as standard.

Shutter Leaves
The shutter leaves are rolled from galvanised steel and are available in the standard width of 152mm with 102, 229 and 305mm versions also available.

Top Track
The standard top track from which the shutter is suspended is constructed from two galvanised steel sections 90mm deep, bolted together to give a strong smooth running section for the shutter thus minimising friction. Only a small amount of headroom is required for the top track and variable packing is provided to allow adjustment in height during longer term service requirements.

Bottom Track
The bottom guide pieces are retained within a 25 x 25mm galvanised steel channel bottom track.

Fire Resistance
Landing doors are supplied in a fire-resisting version when specified. The door has been tested to BS 476 Part 22 1987 for up to four hours fire resistance and is certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board.
