At Ace Door Systems, we supply and install industrial roller shutter doors designed for versatility, durability, and compact operation — perfect for factories, warehouses, workshops, and loading bays across Colchester, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk, and Cambridgeshire.

Each roller shutter is custom-manufactured to exact dimensions and engineered for maximum strength and reliability. Choose from galvanised steel or extruded aluminium curtains, available in more than 50 slat profiles to match your needs — whether you require light commercial use, thermal insulation, or heavy-duty industrial protection. Every profile offers a different balance of security, noise reduction, insulation, and wind resistance.

The shutter curtain coils neatly around a precision-balanced barrel assembly, supported by heavy-gauge steel brackets. This space-saving design minimises headroom and side clearances, making it ideal for tight internal spaces or low lintel openings.

Operation options include manual chain hoists or electric drive systems with high-torque tubular or outboard motors, available in single-phase or three-phase configurations. Every electric shutter includes an emergency manual override for safe use during power loss.

A full suite of access and control options can be integrated, including:

• Key switches, push buttons, or remote control operation

• Hold-to-run and timed opening systems

• Motion, loop, or sensor-based activation

• Full access control integration — keypads, proximity cards, or biometric readers

For safety and compliance, all systems can be fitted with safety brakes, photoelectric cells, and bottom-edge safety sensors, ensuring full BS EN 13241 certification and adherence to UK and EU safety regulations.

Our shutters combine robust engineering with modern control technology — providing reliable access control and peace of mind for every commercial and industrial application.

Every building operates differently — that’s why we design and manufacture a comprehensive range of roller shutter systems, each engineered to meet the unique demands of your site and application.
