TECHNICAL INFORMATION

PVC CRASH DOORS FRAME
The framework is manufactured from 43mm O/D (32mm I/D) heavy wall steam tube with a 5mm
horizontal triangular shaped mild steel gusset plate of varying size (according to width of door).
A separate clamping strip is used to clamp the flexible pandelin position, and is held in place with special
mild steel rivets and collars. An adjustable bearing is fitted to the bottom of the vertical tube to locate
onto a hardened steel cone secured to the floor.

PVC CRASH DOORS SPRING UNIT
The double action spring unit is concealed within the top of the vertical tube. The coil is of a high
quality spring steel, and is held between the best malleable iron bearings on a 19mm diameter mild
steel spindle. The spindle is welded to a mild steel plate 200mm x 51mm x 6mm for
fixing to the lintel. The tension of the coil can be adjusted to suit on site conditions, without being
overstressed. One unit is fitted to each floor leaf. Constructed from 75mm wide curved interlocking
galvanised steel lath with mild steel endlocks and galvanised steel bottom rail.

PVC STRIP CURTAINS INFO
