 Panels not using a SBR beveled windlock for wind or pressure retention will not
be accepted.
d. Windlocks to be segmented (non-continuous) to allow the door panel to
effectively release from the side frame in case of accidental impact.
e. Consult manufacturer for other fabric options.
2. Wind and Pressure Resistance

without vertical stripes will not be accepted.
b. Standard color black.
c. Consult manufacturer for other panel materials and color options.

B. Door Header:
1. Truss
a. Reinforced truss design with angular frame made of steel.
2. Drum Roll

steel shafts.
3. Idler Barrel
a. Front-mounted, fabric guiding (idler) barrel shall be constructed of minimum 4.5”
(114.3 mm) outside diameter round tubing with a wall thickness of 0.13” (3.4
mm) to maximum 5.0” (127 mm) outside diameter round tubing with a wall
thickness of 0.25” (6.35 mm) and supported by 2” (50.8 mm) diameter steel
shafts.
4. End plates
a. Constructed of minimum ¼” (6 mm) hot-rolled steel laser-cut plates with heavy-
duty, self-aligning bearings with cast iron housings.

kg) static.
OK 5. Counterbalance System
a. Direct-drive operator only—no counterbalance. Any doors utilizing
ARCH|NEXUS
counterbalance, torsion springs or sprockets will not be accepted.

C. Side Frames
1. Frames
a. The structural columns consist of 5 x 2 x ¼” structural steel tubing, welded to a
reinforced “Z” mounting bracket (0.22” thick steel) and hinged cover (0.18” thick
steel).
2. Wind Resistance

maintain the bottom edge of the curtain parallel to the door threshold at all times. Doors
using steel bottom bars will not be accepted.
2. Design allows for the bottom bar to release from the door without damage after
accidental impact or sufficient windload. Doors requiring break-away center sections,
notched bottom beams, shear bolts or knock-away sections will not be accepted.

gearbox shall be designed for high-cycle operation. Basic operation features a manual
chain hoist for non-powered operation
 2. Door must operate with an AC drive providing soft starting and soft stopping to reduce
motor and brake wear. Doors without an AC drive will not be accepted.
3. Door to use absolute encoder to regulate door travel limits. Limits to be adjustable,
without the use of tools, from the face of the control panel. Doors using mechanical limit
switches, pulse encoders or doors that require tools to access the operator in order to
adjust limits will not be accepted.
4. Counterbalance System
a. Direct-drive operator only. No counterbalance or torsion springs allowed in any
size door.

H. Safety Features
1. One (1) in-line light curtain (mounted within side frame) projects a safety curtain directly
in line with the panel, from the ground level to approximately 72” (1.82 m) in height. If
an object interferes with the beams, the door must reverse automatically. Doors with light
curtains mounted outside of the door line will not be accepted.
2. Four (4) threshold warning light strips include amber and red LED lights located on the
front and back of both the left and right side columns to indicate door closing for added
safety at the threshold. All wiring for warning lights to be concealed within the door

upon bottom edge impact.
4. Bottom bar will contain a kill switch that ceases door movement when the door is
impacted. Doors which movement continues after impact will not be accepted.

I. Speed
1. Door to operate at a variable speed up to 50 inches per second, maximum speed is
dependent on the size of the door and the type of controller and operator.
2. Door to use absolute encoder to regulate door travel limits. Limits to be adjustable,
without the use of tools, from the face of the control panel. Doors using mechanical limit
switches, pulse encoders or doors that require tools to access the operator in order to
