All you need to know about Commercial Roller Doors for business owners

Steel-Line has been manufacturing and delivering high-quality roller doors for industrial and commercial businesses for over 45 years, so we know a thing or two about how you, as a business owner, need your roller doors to work for you.

Let's explore the different styles of commercial roller doors available at Steel-Line so you can decide which one best suits your business needs.

Whether you need practical access to a retail shopfront, warehouse or loading dock, our roller doors are a versatile solution when smooth operation is important for your commercial premises.

Manufactured of the highest-quality materials and customised to meet your specific requirements, our overhead roller doors offer durability yet are designed for easy opening and closing, whether you choose manual or automatic functions.

Space-saving roller doors are designed to cope with the high-frequency use of commercial spaces. We understand that without a reliable solution, your business can't function as it should.

In commercial and industrial settings, roller doors offer a range of benefits including:

• Strength and durability
• Low maintenance, long-lasting and easy to repair
• Easy automatic or manual operation for maximum convenience
• Space-saving designs
• A wide variety of types for all purposes
• Weather protection

Steel-Line's entire range of commercial roller doors are constructed to withstand the rigours of the harshest working environment, making them suitable for a wide variety of applications.

Light Cycle and High-Cycle Roller Doors

While all our commercial garage doors and roller doors are made with durability in mind, Steel-Line can design your door and fit it with the correct hardware to cope with low-cycle or high-cycle applications. This might mean fitting your roller door with a higher-phase motor or ensuring the springs are fit for your specific uses and needs.

For example, a loading dock that sees constant traffic will require a high-cycle roller door that will remain reliable during regular opening, compared to a retail facility that has low-cycle opening and closing needs of once per day.

• Aluminium Roller Shutters

With minimal maintenance and high-quality protection, our aluminium roller shutters are ideal for retail shopfronts where visual appeal is crucial.

Constructed from interlocking aluminium slats with an integrated bottom rail, they are corrosion-resistant and lightweight, making them very user-friendly. They are available with full or part perforation and come in a range of colours, finishes and sizes to suit the specific needs of your business.

• Steel Roller Shutters

Offering exceptional strength and durability for large openings in a warehouse, workshop or commercial buildings, we can manufacture a steel roller shutter to fit almost any sized space.

Long-lasting materials, superior construction and optional wind-lock clips and guides can help protect your site from the elements. Strong and reliable, our corrosion-resistant steel roller shutters are a smart long-term investment for your company.

• Aluminium Roller Grilles

When your business requires a high level of ventilation and visibility, Steel-Line's aluminium roller grilles are the ideal choice. As suitable for shopping centres and entertainment precincts as they are car parks, they offer customers the convenience of seeing your merchandise after hours, allowing light to infiltrate the space and providing maximum airflow.

Combining an attractive brick-like design pattern and outstanding manufacturing with strong yet lightweight aluminium, they are available with a range of locking options depending on your needs.

• Industrial Roller Doors

When strength and reliability are crucial to your industrial business, opt for an industrial roller door by Steel-Line. Manufactured from genuine Colorbond or Zincalume steel and equipped with nylon felt webbing to ensure quiet and smooth operation, they are suitable for applications including factories, warehouses and storage facilities.

Our industrial roller doors are made to be strong, but stylish, too, so they are available in a variety of colours. When it comes to operation, they are easily motorised and available with either a direct drive or planetary geared chain drive.

• Custom Options

Looking to make your business stand out from the crowd? Need a custom size or specific accessories? Want increased insulation for maximum energy efficiency and money saving?

We can design our commercial roller door products to meet all kinds of requirements. We take care of the whole process, from custom designs to high-quality manufacturing and roller door installation. If you're looking for a particular look or finish for your commercial roller door, call Steel-Line to see how we can design a roller door to meet your specifications.

Roller doors are a low-maintenance solution for a commercial business. However, routine checks can help ensure the smooth operation of your door outside of professional maintenance times.

Steel-Line offers a full roller door service, from manufacture and installation to repairs and service plans. Annual services can help your door remain in good working order, fulfil your warranty obligations and represent significant cost savings for your business.

When it comes to choosing the right type of roller door, it's crucial to first consider the specific needs of your business and property, such as frequency of use, likelihood of accidental damage and necessary additional features. Understanding your true needs will help you select the right material based on durability, climate and aesthetic needs.

The second step to choosing a commercial roller door is to ensure it meets industry standards and is manufactured to last. Steel-Line is an award-winning manufacturer with 45 years of experience in the industry. We can ensure your roller door is measured to fit and manufactured with only the highest quality materials.
