Components and construction
The Guardian Speed Heavy outdoor is a door without balance springs,
consisting of an electrically driven door curtain rolled up on a roller
above the opening. The door curtain is made of horizontal sections
of polyester-reinforced PVC. The sections are fitted with aluminium
reinforcement profiles. The door curtain has a transparent PVC
vision section between approx. 1200 and 2200 mm height. The bottom
of the door curtain has an aluminium bottom beam with soft
rubber sealing profile. A U-shaped profile with brush seals ensures
lateral guidance of the door curtain. The side guides are one unit
combined with the bearing plates for the fastening of the roller and
drive. A curtain tensioning system is provided for doors starting at 9
m2.
Materials
The lateral guide is 2 galvanised steel profiles with brush seals
removable for installation and maintenance. The horizontal roller is
steel. The bottom beam is aluminium. Door curtain 3 mm thick PVC
with nylon inlay, available in blue (standard), yellow, orange, grey or
green, including transparent vision section.

Drive
The drive consists of an electric motor with reduction unit and builtin roll-off safety. The roller is directly driven.
Control
The control system regulates a multitude of functions such as:
• adjustable open time or so-called ‘deadman operation’
• service and run mode
• LED indication for control of the various functions
• choice of permanently open or permanently shut.
Operation
The control box has 3 buttons as standard (open-stop-close) and a
CEE plug. Operation can be by pull switch, key-operated switch,
push-button, photocell, radar, induction loop detection or radio control
with transmitter and receiver. Other forms of operation on request.
Performance
The opening and closing speed amounts to approx. 1 m/s.
Protection
• the door can be manually opened in the case of a power loss
• the bottom beam has a self-testing bottom safety edge that
stops the door and immediately opens it again if it comes into
contact with an obstacle when closing; this protection is insensitive
to humidity
• on the lateral guide profiles a safety photocell and reflector are
fitted as standard (250 mm from the floor); the door will not
close if the beam is broken
• the drive has built-in roll-off safety.
Structural provisions and connection
• for the electrical connection there must be a wall socket within
500 mm of where the control box will be positioned (CEE form
3~NPE/400V/50Hz/16A). As standard this is fitted at a height of
approx. 1500 mm from the floor on the drive side.
Technical details

Upgrades
• PVC hood over drive/roller or both
• lateral guide profiles and PVC hood in customer-specified RAL
colour
• aluminium ‘Break Away’ end pieces in the bottom beam (crash
resistant); the wind resistance is then limited to 5 Beaufort
• other connection values than 3N~400V/50Hz/16A
• electrical part in IP65
• control by frequency control where:
max. opening speed .............................................................1.5 m/s
max. closing speed.............................................................0.75 m/s
• operation by push-buttons, pull switches, photocell, radar,
induction loop or by radio control
• ‘half height’ setting (for personnel access)
• door interlock control in combination with another door
• connection of traffic lights (red/green or red and green).

Why have your door and shutter systems maintained?
- It is a legal requirement - as failure to show evidence of maintenance could mean prohibition & enforcement notices being served and fines up to £5000 and imprisonment for 2 years. 'Safety In Use', the New European CEN Standards legislation - States that all types of door should be maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair. For further clarification visit www.dhfonline.org.uk.
- Routine maintenance prolongs the operational life of the installation and ensures that the installation is kept in good working order.
- It ensures that the door is working in a safe and efficient condition - helping to prevent accidents and damage which in turn results in down time, effecting work flow, productivity and resulting in loss of revenue.
- It assists in identifying potential problems which can easily be rectified.
