Roller garage doors, overhead doors and roller grilles

Hail resistance

heroal roller shutters and roller garage doors achieve hail resistance (HW) of up to class 5 the hail resistance test conducted by the Austrian Institute for Fire Protection, Safety and Security Research (IBS). In a hail simulation, standardised ice balls are pneumatically accelerated and "shot" at the test objects.

You can choose from a variety of roller garage door profiles depending on the roller garage door system you choose. Different options are available for the standard profile, see-through profile, grille profile and ventilation profile. In addition, roller door slats can be roll-formed or extruded. Find out more about the difference between roll-formed and extruded roller door slats and which dimensions can be achieved with which slats in terms of width and height.

There are no limits to creativity in the design of roller garage door surfaces. In addition to standard and special colours, up to 200 colours from the RAL colour palette are available on request. Based on the roller shutter's requirements, the coating technology can be double-layer thick lacquer, decorative foil coating or hwr powder coating. The high-quality finishing processes for the surface of the roller garage door slats and all components are subject to regular testing by independent testing institutes. Find out how the processes differ and learn about the advantages of the various colours and designs.

Coating technologies for roll-formed profiles

heroal 2-layer thick coating

This coating technology is applied before the aluminium components are roll-formed and it is used for the majority of roller garage door slats. Surfaces coated with this technology are colour-intensive, easy to clean, durable and very UV-resistant. Even years down the line, the colour on your roller garage doors will continue to shine like it did on the first day.

Coating technologies for extruded profiles

heroal hwr powder coating

This coating technology was developed for extruded profiles and is optimally matched with the double-layer thick lacquer coating for roll-formed products. This ensures a uniform appearance for windows, roller shutters and roller garage doors. heroal hwr powder coating meets the highest standards of quality and sustainability. It is exceptionally robust, highly weather-resistant and easy to clean.

heroal SD

The coating technology heroal Surface Design (SD) offers additional design possibilities. heroal SD offers wood, concrete and rust looks. In addition to the variety of design possibilities, this type of coating is also particularly resistant. A pre-treatment with heroal hwr powder coating makes heroal SD coating a higher quality than decorative film.

Roller garage door colours

There is no limits on colour design with heroal roller shutter systems. In addition to standard and special colours, colours from the RAL colour palette are available on request. Roller garage door slats can also be foil-coated in a variety of designs. Take a look at a small selection of the wide range of colours available for heroal roller garage door systems.

You can equip your roller door, overhead door or roller grille with numerous accessories that provide for more security and ease of use and hence enhance your quality of live. Enjoy the capability of heroal garage doors to interact with smart home systems, and the burglary resistance and accident prevention they offer. In addition, heroal offers innovative roller door technologies, enhancing the smooth running of the door and preventing the curtain from damage. They provide for more durability and a longer lifecycle of your roller door system.

Soft start and soft stop

This technology makes sure that your garage door opens and closes softly. Your overhead door opens almost without a sound and also closes this way. This does not only provide for a quiet running, it also extends the lifecycle of your door.

Smart Home

Roller doors by heroal are compatible with all standard smart home systems. Using your smart phone or tablet, you can easily check or change the locking status of your garage door while you are on your way. Choose the settings of your roller door so that it closes by itself when you leave the garage.

Emergency hand crank

An emergency hand crank is particularly useful if there is no second exit and the only entry is through the garage door. The emergency hand crank allows you to open the garage door manually, if the electric drive should fail to operate. The lockable crank can be installed outside. This device is available for all heroal roller doors.

Protection against accidents

Integrated light sensors provide for automatic obstacle recognition and stop the roller door as soon as the light barrier is interrupted. All heroal garage doors are equipped with an anti-drop protection. This protection catches and holds the roller door and prevents uncontrolled unwinding. Accident prevention is simply the best protection.

In roll forming, aluminium strips are passed through successive rollers and formed into the desired shape for the slats piece-by-piece. These slats have a particularly high wind load resistance compared to an extruded slat. Extruded profiles are made from an aluminium press block that is heated and then pressed. The result is a slat in the desired shape with a very high material thickness, which makes the slat and the garage door overall more stable and robust. An extruded slat is particularly useful when you need increased safety or high stability.

With so many advantages of electric roller garage doors, a garage door without an electric drive is almost unthinkable today. In addition to the convenience of remote controls and smartphone controls, security also plays a major role. For example, automatic obstacle detection can protect against accidents and injuries caused by closing doors. There are a variety of options for installing your garage door drive. We offer roller garage doors with a geared motor, overhead doors with side-mounted drives and overhead doors with centre-mounted drives.
