Roller garage doors

The automatic roller garage door

Roller garage doors are made of high-quality aluminium slats and are manufactured according to the roller shutter principle. This leaves the ceiling in the garage free and no swing space is required in front of the garage, so you can use every last centimetre of space, for example for parking a second car. 

Novorol takes the concept of the roller garage door to a new level. It out-performs the ordinary garage door for ease of use, insulation, finishes, safety and security plus all doors are manufactured under ISO 9001 quality guidelines.

Enjoy effortless automation, enhanced security, and premium insulation with our space-saving insulated roller doors, designed to open vertically and maximise driveway use. With vibrant colours, elegant woodgrain finishes and smartphone app compatibility, these doors combine style, convenience, and protection for your home. Space-saving Novorol roller doors are safety certified to EN12453 and fitted with NovoShield and a safety edge as standard.

How roller garage doors work

Door Operation

THE ROLLER DOOR PRINCIPLE

 The Novorol insulated roller door combines a space saving design with the convenience of an electrically operated automatic door. The door lifts vertically and rolls into a box at the head of the garage door opening, providing more space in front of the garage. This allows you the option to park closer as the door does not swing out like a traditional garage door, which is ideal if you have a shorter driveway. The vertical tracks are fitted with brush seals, which ensure low-wear door guidance!

This unique design also allows you more space inside the garage for storage etc.

Product Specification

1. Novoshield
Supplied in the standard colour white. Protects the user from jamming and at the same time offers an attractive appearance.
2. Manual Overide
We supply a crank handle as standard. This allows the door to be opened manually from the inside, for example if the power fails.
3. Control System / Unit
As soon as you open or close the door, the lighting on the control unit is activated. It switches off again automatically after four minutes.
 

4. Guide Rails
The vertical guide rails are fitted with brush seals that ensure low-wear door guidance and good sealing!
5. Safety Edge
If the door encounters the slightest resistance when closing, the optical closing edge safety device ensures that it stops immediately and opens again.

Door comparison and properties

Comparison with other garage door types

COMPARISON WITH OTHER GARAGE DOOR TYPES

 

Up-and-over doors

Sectional doors

Side-Hinged

Roller shutters

Functional principle 

Up-and-over doors consist of a door leaf as a unit, supported by two lateral lever arms

Sectional doors consist of sections that are connected to each other and are pushed vertically under the ceiling

Side Hinged doors can be opened with two swing doors that swing inwards or outwards

Door slats roll up into the roller shutter box provided for this purpose to save space, similar to the window roller blinds used in domestic applications

Space in front of the garage

Compared to sectional or roller doors, the door leaf swings outwards when opened

Space in front of the garage can be used for parking a car, for example (no swinging space in front of the garage)

The space required in front of the garage must be taken into account for outward swinging hinged doors

Space in front of the garage can be used for parking a car, for example (no swing space in front of the garage)

INSULATION and ENERGY EFFICIENCY

NOTES ON INSULATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Our automated insulated Roller doors are constructed from 77mm or 55mm double walled aluminium laths filled with CFC free insulating foam, an ideal solution for those who want to improve the appearance and gain space in their garage. Known as Novorol 77 and 55 these insulated roller doors are strong and efficient. Novorol is a feature packed insulated roller door which comes with a full box and 70mm guides up to 3m or 90mm guide for doors over 3m as standard.

SAFETY

FALL PROTECTION

Electrically operated roller garage doors offer more convenience, but also require additional safety devices. For example, the aluminium slat roller shutter curtain must be prevented from suddenly falling. For this purpose, our roller garage doors are equipped with fall protection.

If the supporting equipment fails and the rolling speed therefore exceeds a certain value, this safety device takes effect and stops the door movement automatically.

SLIDE-ON SAFETY DEVICE

The anti-opening device protects against unauthorised opening of the door. Electrically operated doors such as roller garage doors always offer a manual unlocking option so that the garage remains accessible even in the event of a power failure.

To prevent this option from being misused, the anti-opening device is included as standard.

CLOSING EDGE PROTECTION

If the door encounters the slightest resistance when closing, the optical closing edge safety device ensures that it stops immediately and opens again.

This prevents personal injury and damage to property from the outset.

The closing edge safety device is pre-assembled in the factory as standard and is equipped with an LED status indicator.
