The mall outlet featured a wide entrance with a very low ceiling bulkhead (only 150mm headroom), making a standard vertical rolling shutter impossible without blocking the entrance.
Our Solution
We engineered a custom top-hung horizontal sliding polycarbonate shutter that folds into a hidden wall pocket. UV-stabilized panels provide 92% visual clarity and physical protection with zero trip-hazard floor tracks.
Custom horizontal sliding polycarbonate shutter (18ft x 9.5ft layout) for main entrance
Top-hung heavy-duty anodized aluminum track requiring no floor tracks
Flush floor drop-bolts locking into brass dust sockets
