Hormann HR120 S Roller Shutter
Unheated Industrial Building Solution
The HR120 S is a classic single skinned roller shutter door for unheated structures. These include equipment halls, warehouses, storage facilities, and agricultural buildings. When you need a large robust roller shutter, the HR120 S provides the perfect solution. The large concave profile ensures the shutter remains flexible yet rigid. It also offers excellent wind resistance even across larger dimensions.
This heavy duty steel door handles rough daily operations where robustness matters most. The HR120 S represents the commitment Hörmann has to delivering exceptional performance, reliability, and longevity across demanding applications throughout the UK.
Heavy Duty Steel Profile
Strong, stable, potent, and powerful. The steel framed HR120 S provides an ideal solution when you require a heavy duty steel shutter. We manufacture the HR120 S profile using a 1.0mm galvanized steel finish. This allows your door to withstand higher loads and more intensive operational demands compared to aluminium alternatives.
Advanced Profile Technology
Hörmann decisively improved its rolling shutters with optimised profile geometry engineered specifically for large industrial openings. The concave interior and exterior surfaces of the HR120 S profiles ensure extremely good rolling action. This maintains exceptional structural integrity across wider spans.
Optimally designed hinges reduce wear and enable a smooth connection between the curtain and barrel. You avoid the usual pressure marks and premature component deterioration typical of inferior profile designs. This advanced engineering ensures reliable operation throughout thousands of cycles while minimising maintenance requirements.
Steel Profile Benefits
- A robust 1.0mm galvanized steel construction provides exceptional strength and impact resistance.
- The large 120mm concave profile design combines flexibility with rigidity for superior wind resistance.
- A standard galvanized finish ensures maximum corrosion protection for long service life across all UK weather conditions.
- The enhanced load capacity withstands higher operational loads and physical impacts.
- This door is specifically engineered for rough daily operations in demanding industrial and agricultural environments.
- Optimised concave profile geometry ensures smooth and reliable rolling action throughout its service life.
- An advanced hinge design minimises friction while reducing operational noise.
- The solid steel construction enables larger structural openings while maintaining top performance.
Solutions for Large Shutters
Samson Doors specialise in installing uniquely made large roller shutters for various buildings. These include aircraft hangars, car ports, factories, storage facilities, and large manufacturing buildings. We specifically engineer the HR120 S for these challenging applications where exceptional strength, reliability, and durability are non negotiable requirements.
The classic HR120 S roller shutter can reach impressive dimensions. We manufacture sizes up to 11750mm in width and 8000mm in height. This exceptional size capability makes the HR120 S the ideal solution for large industrial openings requiring substantial access points.
Flexible Drive Options
Operator and controls come included. Depending on the shutter size, we supply the HR120 S with a direct drive operator or a chain drive operator. You can also supplement the direct drive with the optional ZAK gear system. The ZAK gear system provides enhanced operational efficiency and reliability for larger or more demanding installations.
Motor and Control Options
- The direct drive operator provides efficient motor driven operation for medium to larger shutters with standard requirements.
- The optional ZAK gear system offers advanced technology for enhanced performance on larger or more demanding installations.
- A chain drive operator provides an economical solution for specific size ranges with reliable manual backup capability.
- Manual rolling shutters allow simple operation for infrequently used openings.
- A complete operator and control package comes supplied as standard with all electric configurations.
Tension Spring Assembly
All Hörmann rolling shutters feature innovative tension spring assembly technology. Thanks to this advanced system, the door opens and closes particularly easily. It also protects the door and operator mechanism from excessive wear. The custom dimensioned springs enable long service intervals, dramatically reducing maintenance costs and operational downtime.
For manual operation, the tension spring assembly compensates the weight of the door curtain, enabling easy opening and closing by hand. This inexpensive solution is ideal for doors that rarely see use. If operational frequency changes, you can easily retrofit an electric operator without major structural modifications.
Tension Spring Benefits
- Springs compensate curtain weight to protect operator technology and reduce mechanical wear.
- Hand operation remains simple even on larger doors thanks to this easy weight compensation.
- Custom dimensioned springs reduce maintenance requirements and ensure long service intervals.
- A reduced load on the motor drive extends operational longevity and protects the operator.
- You can easily retrofit from manual to electric operation without major structural modifications.
- This proven technology comes fitted as standard across the entire Hörmann shutter range.
Custom Solutions and Accessories
We offer fascia panels and fixed assemblies when gaps need filling between the lintel and the opening width. We also provide wicket doors for pedestrian access without operating the main shutter. You can choose external rolling shutters for facade mounted applications, and angled bottom profiles to accommodate ramps and steps. This ensures perfect integration regardless of your specific structural requirements.
- Fascia panels feature fixed assemblies that fill gaps between the lintel and opening width for a clean architectural appearance.
- Wicket doors integrate pedestrian access within the shutter curtain to avoid full door operation.
- External rolling shutters offer facade mounted configurations for specific architectural and structural requirements.
- Angled bottom profiles accommodate ramps, steps, and uneven ground conditions perfectly.
- Optional transparent vision panels enhance natural light and visibility wherever required.
- A comprehensive range of safety devices ensures full compliance with current UK regulations.
Colour and Finish Options
We supply the HR120 S with a galvanized steel finish as standard. This provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability across all UK weather conditions without requiring additional protective coatings. This natural galvanized appearance suits most industrial and agricultural applications where functional performance outweighs aesthetic considerations.
For applications requiring specific colour matching or enhanced weathering performance, powder coating in any RAL or NCS colour is available on request. This high quality finish provides long term weather protection while enabling architectural integration with existing building aesthetics.
Typical Applications
- Agricultural buildings like grain stores and livestock housing that require robust security.
- Warehouses and distribution centres with large opening requirements and frequent daily use.
- Equipment halls housing heavy machinery that require wide clear openings.
- Manufacturing facilities with substantial access requirements for materials and equipment.
- Aircraft hangars with extra large openings needing maximum strength and exceptional wind resistance.
- Secure car ports and vehicle storage for fleets and commercial vehicles.
- General purpose storage buildings requiring economical security without thermal insulation.
- Factories with robust operational demands and rough daily use.
