Each Renlita door is tailored to suit your architectural preferences with a wide range of glazing and cladding material to choose from. In tailor-making each door, our ARA Manufacture engineers accurately counterweight every client’s steel frame door to ensure operating ease. Precise mathematical calculations are used to achieve exact counterweight balance for safety and appearance, offering a 6 to 1 safety factor.
Whether opened or closed, its superior design and rigid quality control ensure a long service life.
Doors can also be electrically operated by a compact gearbox with a three phase or single-phase motor.
| Specifications |
- Operation: The Floataway Door is a single leaf door balanced with counterweights under constant suspension. Door movement is controlled by guide bearings running in vertical 60 x 70 x 60 x 3m guide channels and flat mild steel link arms connecting the door to the side guides.
- Safety: Our patented anti-fall brake mechanism is optional and designed for the event of a cable failure.
- Counterweight Balanced Door: The frame is constructed from hollow steel sections and designed, in accordance with AS1170, AS1250, to withstand a wind loading of 0.5 kPa in the closed position and provide minimum deflection in the open position.
- 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 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 centres.
- Other Cladding: Other available claddings 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 leaf height is sufficient. Locking is by a night latch unless otherwise specified. It is recommended that access doors open outwards on a Series 1000 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.
Operations constraints may limit the use of this door. Please consult the manufacturer prior to specifying large openings.
