The High Speed Aluminum Roller Shutter pairs the security and weather-tightness of an aluminum roller shutter with faster operating speeds than a conventional shutter. Interlocking aluminum slats coil onto a head drum, giving a robust, insulated closure for external openings that still need to open and close frequently.
It is heavier than a flexible PVC rapid door, so expect shutter-class speeds rather than full rapid-door speeds; RAX sizes the motor and confirms travel speed per project (market rapid doors broadly span ~0.6-2.0 m/s by type – industry synthesis, with rigid/heavier curtains at the lower end).
As a pure manufacturer, RAX builds each aluminum roller shutter to your exact opening and RAL color – from prototype to container-load delivery order – with wiring diagrams and English manuals for your local installers.
Sources & honesty: RAX-company facts on this page (materials, 100,000-cycle fatigue testing, certifications held, warranty, lead time) are from RAX Door Technology’s approved brand brief. Industry benchmark figures (typical opening speeds, cycle-life ranges, EN 12424 wind classes, ISO 14644-1 cleanroom classes, competitor reference points) are drawn from our sourced category research (research/high-speed-doors.md) and are marked as industry-typical or attributed to the named manufacturer. RAX’s own measured speed, U-value, wind-class certificate and cleanroom class are confirmed per project by test – we do not publish them as generic figures. Fire resistance (EN 1634-1) and ATEX suitability are project-specific capabilities, not blanket certificates.
Interlocking aluminum alloy 6063-T5 slats (RAX) for security and weather-tightness; insulated slat option available.
Tuned drive and guides give quicker cycling than a conventional roller shutter for frequently used external openings.
Closed-loop servo or VFD – both manufactured in-house by RAX.
Slats, guides and drive validated against RAX’s 100,000-cycle fatigue protocol; servo motor backed by a 5-year warranty.

Provide clear opening width x height, headroom and side room – or site photos. We produce the confirmation drawing and confirm the feasible span against wind class.
Cycles per day, operating temperature range, wind exposure, and clean / cold / washdown / hazardous-area duty.
Target speed, thermal (U-value), wind (EN 12424), fire (EN 1634-1), acoustic or cleanroom class – we match the applicable standard and confirm by test.
Servo or VFD drive, sensing (radar / geomagnetic / light-curtain), safety edges and any safety-interlock or smart (WiFi/RS485) control needs.
Robust, lockable aluminum closure for warehouses, depots and retail stock rooms.
Faster cycling than a standard shutter for openings that operate often.
Wind- and rain-tight closure with insulated slat options.
Secure external bay doors that still open quickly for dispatch.
RAX supports full private-label production of the High Speed Aluminum Roller Shutter: custom RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and installation-manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU). Start with an OEM sample and scale to container-load branded production. Custom molds, Tooling records are archived for up to 5 years — no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA.
Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors – the harmonized basis for CE marking. Covers mechanical and power-operated safety, wind-pressure and water-penetration resistance, thermal (U-value) and air-permeability performance, with technical documentation retained 10 years.
Safety in use of power-operated doors – operating-force limits and entrapment protection, and the test methods behind our operator safety data.
Wind-load resistance classification (Class 0-5) and the test method for doors. Class 0 denotes no declared wind performance; Class 5 (‘Exceptional’, above 1000 Pa) is set by special maker-buyer agreement.
Fire-resistance test method for door and shutter assemblies. RAX can engineer fire-rated curtains/panels (EI60/EI120) and arrange EN 1634-1 testing per project – a project-specific capability, not a blanket held certificate.
Any opening size within the High Speed Doors range – large industrial doors from prototype to container-load, full flexibility on order quantity. Share your opening width x height (or site photos) and our engineers confirm the feasible span, wind class and drive sizing, then produce technical drawings.
An aluminum roller shutter is heavier than a flexible PVC rapid door, so it runs at shutter-class speeds rather than full rapid-door speeds; rigid/heavier curtains sit at the lower end of the ~0.6-2.0 m/s market band (industry synthesis). RAX sizes the motor and confirms the travel speed for your opening in the quotation.
The aluminum roller shutter uses interlocking rigid slats, so it gives far better security, weather-tightness and (with insulated slats) thermal performance – but it cycles more slowly than a flexible PVC rapid door. Use the aluminum shutter for external, security-sensitive openings; use a PVC rapid door for fast internal traffic. RAX makes both in one factory and can supply the right type for each opening.
We are a pure manufacturer and do not provide on-site installation. Every order ships with an English installation manual, wiring diagrams for your local installation team; operators are pre-set and tested before dispatch.
RAX holds ISO 9001:2015 and CE to EN 13241 (industrial door) and EN 12453 (operator safety), with SGS material reports and product liability insurance. Fire resistance (EI60/EI120) and an EN 12424 wind-load class are project-specific capabilities we test and certify per order against the matching standard – we do not overclaim a blanket rating.
Yes. RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU) are all supported, from an OEM sample to container-load branded production, under strict NDA.
