Rolling Shutters/Insulated Rolling Shutters

Insulated Rolling Shutter

A double-wall slat with a core, where the opening separates two climates.

An insulated double-wall rolling shutter lowered to about two-thirds across the loading opening of a white-panelled temperature-controlled logistics building, its thick spangled galvanised slats running between black guides with rubber seals beneath a stainless hood, cool interior light beneath the bottom rail, a wall control station with red emergency stop at the jamb and yellow-and-black bollards on the concrete apronRolling Shutters

01Overview

About Insulated Rolling Shutter

An insulated shutter replaces the single-skin slat with a double-wall profile and an insulating core. That does two things at once: it slows heat transfer through the closed opening, and it noticeably reduces noise through it.

03Variants

Available configurations

The same product, built for a different job. Where a specification depends on opening dimensions, selected profile, operating duty or site conditions, the final configuration is confirmed during technical assessment.

  • Standard insulated

    Double-wall profile with an insulating core, for general commercial and light industrial openings that need thermal and acoustic separation.

  • Thermal insulated

    Specified where thermal separation is the primary requirement, with the core and the perimeter sealing selected against the differential the opening has to hold.

  • Industrial insulated

    Heavier construction for industrial openings, with the curtain, guide and drive sized for the span as well as the insulation requirement.

Insulated Rolling Shutter in detail

  • Close-up along the curtain of an insulated double-wall rolling shutter: galvanised slats with a convex profile interlocking one above the next, the cut end of each slat showing the two steel skins with the pale foam core between them, warehouse racking soft in the background
  • Close-up at one jamb of an insulated rolling shutter: the black steel guide channel with a rubber edge seal gripping the galvanised double-wall curtain and the rubber bottom seal meeting the polished concrete floor
  • A galvanised insulated rolling shutter installed in a white insulated-panel wall of a chilled store, the curtain a third open beneath a stainless hood, with the wall control station at the jamb, yellow-and-black bollards and palletised goods on the floor

FAQ

Questions we are actually asked

What U-value does it achieve?
We only publish a U-value where real test data exists for the specific construction, and none has been supplied for these configurations. Tell us the differential the opening has to hold and we will specify the core and sealing against it rather than quote a number we cannot support.
How thick is the insulating core?
It is configuration dependent. Core material and thickness are chosen against the thermal and acoustic requirement, so there is no single figure that applies across the range.
Does it reduce noise as well as heat?
Yes, the double-wall construction with a core reduces noise transfer as well. If acoustic performance is the main reason for specifying it, say so, because it can change which core is appropriate.
What sizes is the Insulated Rolling Shutter available in?
It is made to the opening rather than supplied in fixed sizes. Send us the clear width and height along with the headroom and side room available, and we will confirm what the configuration supports.
Can it be motorised, and can an existing shutter be motorised?
Yes to both, where the curtain and barrel suit it. Motor selection follows curtain weight, opening size, barrel diameter and how often the shutter runs, so it is calculated for the opening rather than taken from a product line.
What happens during a power failure?
Every powered shutter is supplied with a manual override, by hand chain, crank or release depending on the configuration. It is part of the specification rather than an accessory.
What do you need from us to quote?
Clear opening width and height, the headroom and side room, roughly how many times a day it will be used, whether it is internal or external, and the finish you want. That is usually enough for a configuration and a price.
