Designed to enhance the existing Rollerdoor range, this Rapid Action option offers a direct manual chain drive operating speed of 2 seconds per metre height. The standard manual gearbox Rollerdoor has an operating speed of 14 seconds per metre height. Using the new enhanced Rollerdoor top bracket the height loss when fully up is still only 250mm.
