Sun and Security

Our wide range of motors includes models with advanced radio technology, which allows wireless operation of motorized applications through the RTS family of controls. These controls offer both wired and wireless options, allowing convenient operation via standard AC switching or radio control, similar to a common light switch.

Sun and Security provides two options for shutter boxes: square and hex shaped boxes that cater to various applications and requirements.

For enhanced security, we use a U-channel made from aluminum that is painted to match the Roll-A-Shield. While the L-angle is also available and suitable in certain cases, the U-channel offers superior security features.

To prevent slats from sliding or slipping sideways, and to minimize the need for future service calls, we incorporate adjustment plugs at the ends of our slats. These plugs ensure proper alignment and stability.

The extruded ends of the slat play a crucial role in achieving a tight fit when you close the shutter. To ensure this, we insert a neoprene strip/weather strip into the lower edge of the slat, enhancing its sealing capabilities.

The slat, along with its hinges, holds significant importance in a rolling shutter system. Our finely engineered hinges ensure quiet and smooth rolling motion. While we offer various slat options, our most common choice is the single wall extruded and foam filled slat. These extruded slats provide heightened security and can span longer distances. The polyurethane foamed core within the slats offers numerous benefits, including insulation against heat, cold, and noise reduction. Our slats are made from a 3005 H27 aluminum alloy that adheres to ASTM aluminum standards. They are coil coated with a high-quality polyester paint on the outside, ensuring durability, and feature a poly primer on the inside, creating an adhesive surface for the polyurethane foam core. During the forming process, the foam is injected to enhance structural integrity and insulation properties of the slat.
