Sws seceurodoor 75 continental single phase tube motor drive 22g steel steel roller shutter doors

SeceuroDoor 75 Continental Industrial Roller Shutter (240V Tube Motor)

The SeceuroDoor 75 Continental is a high quality, low to medium use commercial roller shutter door featuring a 'Continental' build style and powered by a reliable single phase 240V electric tube motor. Designed for simplicity and neat aesthetics, this door is an excellent choice for commercial or industrial openings where usage is infrequent, but decent security and clean lines are essential.

The 'Continental' build specification connects the endplates directly to the side guides, creating a completely flush outer edge from top to bottom. This integrated design makes the shutter ideal for 'in-between' installations within an opening, as well as face-fixed applications, offering a tidier finish compared to traditional industrial shutter layouts.

Motor and Operation

Operated by a single phase 240V electric tube motor, this shutter is designed for straightforward, user-friendly control. The motor is neatly integrated inside the roller barrel, remaining completely hidden from view with only the limit settings and power cabling visible. This design protects the mechanism while maintaining a clean appearance.

Electric tube motors are rated for low to medium usage, typically suitable for 10 - 20 operations per day. They are not recommended for high-intensity traffic or extremely large openings where higher pulling forces are required. For added peace of mind, an internal manual override facility is included as standard. This system features an under-curtain exit for a winding handle, integrated on the same side as the motor, allowing the door to be manually operated from inside in the event of a power failure.

Curtain Construction and Materials

The curtain is constructed from a strong single skin galvanised steel profile with a 75 mm slat height. This model is supplied with a 22 gauge (0.7 mm) steel curtain as standard, providing a robust physical barrier suitable for medium security applications. Heavier 20 gauge (0.9 mm) and 18 gauge options are available for projects requiring enhanced strength (POA).

SeceuroDoor 75 EVO Installation Overview

The new EVO design makes installing the SeceuroDoor 75 Continental quicker and simpler than ever before. SWS engineered these specific updates to reduce time on site and provide a much more consistent finish. Thanks to the refined design, experienced fitters can complete suitable installations up to 25 percent faster.

Site Preparation

Before beginning the installation, you must ensure the structural opening is perfectly plumb, level, and capable of supporting the overall door weight. The Continental design perfectly suits both face fix and reveal fix applications. You will require a standard 13 amp fused spur located near the motor side to provide power for the single phase tube motor.

Framework Assembly

• Universal end plates: The laser cut end plates feature no handing, which allows for easy on site adjustments if your structural requirements change.
• Bolted construction: You simply bolt the end plates together without any welding required. This protects the zinc coating and ensures maximum corrosion resistance.
• Continental styling: The aluminium guide rails connect directly to the head box and end plates to create a flush and cohesive outer edge.
• One person fitting: The improved lightweight design allows a single installer to easily manage the framework assembly on smaller door sizes.

Motor and Curtain Setup

The electric tube motor comes pre installed inside the barrel assembly. The new EVO adaptor plates feature two fixing holes for all configurations, making motor positioning and future modifications much easier. Once you secure the barrel, you can smoothly guide the steel curtain down into the rails.

Precision manufacturing ensures better alignment straight out of the box. This drastically reduces the time you would normally spend tuning and adjusting the curtain on site. During this stage, you must also route the internal manual override chain to ensure the user has safe operation during any power failures.

Commissioning and Safety

After installing the mechanical components, a qualified electrician must complete the final wiring connections. You will then need to set the precise upper and lower motor limits to ensure smooth daily operation. If you specified a remote control system, you must also install and thoroughly test the bottom safety edge detection system to fully comply with current UK safety regulations.

Measuring Guide for SeceuroDoor 75 Roller Shutters

Understanding Ordering Dimensions

The measuring, pricing and ordering dimensions for any electric roller shutter door with an electric tube motor drive are based on the OVERALL WIDTH and OVERALL HEIGHT, including the guides for the width and endplates for the height. This measurement principle applies regardless of whether the door is a Continental or Traditional build arrangement.

Key Measurement Rules:

• OVERALL WIDTH (including guides) = Ordering Width
• OVERALL HEIGHT (including endplates) = Ordering Height

See diagrams below for visual reference.

Continental vs Traditional Build Differences

The Traditional build roller door arrangement uses heavier duty steel guides with steel angle sections in the setup, whereas the Continental build roller doors use aluminium guides. Traditional build doors can generally accommodate larger sizes and offer more adaptation options with the guides and track fixing angles, particularly useful when dealing with more challenging installation scenarios.

Both door build types have the guides, endplate and optional roll hood cover fitted within the dimensions of the external endplate dimensions.

Important Height Considerations

The endplate and hood cover size will vary depending on the height of the door, so please be aware to check the drive-through height and endplate size if your dimensions are critical. Always allow for the physical size of the rolled curtain and endplate assembly when calculating available headroom.

Installation Methods

Face Fit - Behind the Opening

Most roller shutter doors are installed to the inside face of the aperture. In a perfect scenario, your daylight opening dimensions are the space between the guides and underneath the endplate dimensions. However, it is important to note that any roller shutter will always have a 'hang down' when opened fully, making the final drive-through height slightly less than the height of the guides.

This hang down is normal and varies on different models depending on the curtain specification and roll size. If your opening drive-through height is critical, please speak to us first to determine the best height to order for your specific application.

Reveal Fit - Between the Opening

Some roller shutter doors are installed between the aperture opening (reveal fit), and this is where the electric tube motor roller door arrangement works particularly well, as all components are positioned inboard from the ordering dimensions, creating a neat flush finish.

You can install any roller shutter door between an opening, but please note that industrial motor-driven models may require some additional steelwork or sub-framing to make them fit between the reveal properly and securely.
