About Industrial Doors & Rolling Shutters

Industrial Doors are commonly used on commercial and industrial properties, such as warehouses, fire stations and factories to provide access for vehicles and goods. They come in various sizes and types which include sectional, roller, or high speed. Each type has its specific features and is selected for characteristics such as its durability, usage, insulation, speed of opening, security, and ventilation.

Security rolling shutters are used to secure commercial property such as retail outlets. Their main purpose is to provide extra protection, particularly to large shop front windows and are in common usage in shopping centres and high streets. They are also used for security on bars and catering areas and are increasingly used at sports grounds and entertainment locations.

It is important to specify the correct industrial door or shutter depending on the requirements, if you need help or advice contact a dhf member of the Industrial Door Group who can offer their expertise.
