Why businesses choose it

It is operated by strap or winding handle and locked at floor level on each side. Insurers often specify a lock type or rating, so we confirm their wording before ordering.

Our approach

Security is about the whole opening, not just the curtain. We look at the fixings, the lock position, the power supply for electric operation and how your insurer wants the premises secured before we price anything.

Options and specification

  • Suited to openings up to about 3m wide
  • Pull strap or winding handle
  • Floor locks either side
