Manually Operated

The manually operated option utilises a spring-loaded control mechanism, offering a straightforward yet effective way to secure your premises. With key lockable features from the internal or external, The Australian Trellis Door Company (ATDC)’s manual roller shutters provide a physical barrier that deters unauthorised access. This manual control option is ideal for those who prefer a hands-on approach to security management.

Electric Operated

For a more advanced and convenient solution, The Australian Trellis Door Company (ATDC) offers electrically operated roller shutters. Controlled either through a key switch (allowing restriction of access) or via a remote control, these shutters bring modernity and ease of use to the table.

The sequential relay system allows users to open or control shutters in groups or banks, catering to specific security requirements. Moreover, the option to integrate these shutters into the customer’s in-house computer system adds an extra layer of security.

In the event of a power failure, The Australian Trellis Door Company (ATDC)’s electric roller shutters come equipped with UPS battery backup facilities, ensuring continuous operation and safeguarding egress. Additionally, options are available to comply with emergency egress situations using logic control units, enhancing the safety features of these roller shutters.
