The Renlita Series 2000 is a counterweight balanced, foldaway door designed for industrial, commercial and domestic projects where minimum internal projection is desired. A two-leaf design, when opening, the door folds along a horizontal hinge line and moves upward coming to rest immediately below the lintel.
Features
ARA Manufacture custom designs and manufactures each door individually using precise mathematical calculations to achieve exact counterweight for safety and appearance, offering a 6 to 1 safety factor.
Wind loading can be a critical design factor especially in cyclone prone areas; unless otherwise specified the doors are designed to resist a minimum wind loading of 0.5 kPa.
Doors can also be electrically operated by a compact gearbox with a three phase or single-phase motor.
Specifications
Operation: Two leaf hinged horizontally, counterbalanced with counterweights under constant suspension. Door movement is controlled by guide roller operating in 60 x 70 x 60 x 3m guide channels.
Safety: Our patented anti-fall brake mechanism is optional and designed for the event of a cable failure.
Cladding (Steel): Doors can be clad with various sheeting materials. Standard Colourbond profiles are commonly used, however specialised profiles can be used. Please consult the manufacturer on the use of non standard sections.
Cladding (Glass): Doors can be partially or fully glazed for viewing or showroom display and are glazed in accordance with AS1288. Standard glazing uses 6.38mm laminated safety glass. The use of other glass or glazing material should be referred to the manufacturer due to additional weight, deflection, door design and construction. Glazed doors will generally incorporate a kickplate in the base of the bottom leaf. Door size and weight will determine kickplate height.
Bar Grille: This door is constructed of standard RHS frame covered with 20mm square hollow steel tube welded vertically over the entire door face at approximately 120mm centers.
Other Cladding: Other available cladding commonly used are plywood, mesh, perforated sheet, woven wire and galvanised sheet.
Locking: By use of internal padbolts unless otherwise specified. Motorised doors will not be fitted with locks.
Counterweight Covers: The counterweights shall be protected and covered with a removable pressed sheet to meet design requirements.
Optional Extras
Escape & Access Doors: Can be incorporated into door design providing bottom leaf height is sufficient. Locking is by a night latch unless otherwise specified. It is recommended that access doors open outward on a Series 2000 door.
Motorisation: Operation by a ramp and carriage designed for smooth opening and closing. The carriage is driven by an overhead shaft connected to a three or single phase drive unit incorporating open and close limit switches.
