Custom-engineered industrial roller shutter door — also built to your OEM specification.
A solar powered roller shutter with a photovoltaic panel and battery drive — self-sufficient electric operation for off-grid, remote and energy-conscious sites.
Sun-powered, self-sufficient operation — the shutter for sites without convenient mains power or with strong energy-efficiency goals.
The solar powered roller shutter pairs a photovoltaic panel and rechargeable battery with a low-energy tubular motor, so the door operates independently of the mains. It is the right solution for remote agricultural and utility buildings, off-grid storage, sites where running mains power to the opening is costly, and any project targeting energy self-sufficiency.
RAX sizes the panel, battery and motor to the cycle duty and local solar exposure so the system reliably recharges between operations, and supplies the charge controller and wiring as part of the package. A manual override is retained for extended low-sunlight periods, and the shutter is built and validated like every RAX door.
RAX-company facts on this page — materials, 100,000-cycle fatigue testing, certifications held, warranty and lead time — are from RAX Door Technology’s approved brand brief. Industry figures are marked [SOURCED] (with the source) or [ESTIMATE] (industry-typical, not independently verified) in the Basis column and are confirmed against your opening on the technical layout. Fire resistance (EI60/EI120) and wind-load class are project-specific capabilities we test and document per order — never blanket certificates.
Every door is engineered to your opening. The values below are the validated baseline; final figures are confirmed on your specification.

Door body 2-year warranty · operator/motor 3 years (servo motor 5 years) · free spare parts within warranty, dispatched DHL/FedEx 5–7 days.
Yes. The photovoltaic panel and rechargeable battery drive a low-energy tubular motor independently of the mains, so the shutter can operate at remote and off-grid sites. We size the panel and battery to your cycles per day and local solar exposure.
The battery stores enough charge for normal operation between recharges, and a manual override (gear crank or chain) is retained so the door can still be operated during extended low-sunlight periods. We can increase battery capacity for sites with long cloudy seasons.
Yes. The curtain, guides and drive are built and validated like every RAX shutter – 100,000-cycle fatigue tested and CE marked to EN 13241. The solar system only changes the power source, not the door’s mechanical durability.
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.
Held: ISO 9001:2015, CE to EN 13241 (industrial door) and EN 12453 (operator safety), with SGS material reports and Product Liability Insurance. Fire resistance (EI60/EI120) and the wind-load class are project-specific capabilities we test and certify per order against the matching standard – we never 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. Tooling records are archived up to 5 years with no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA.
Sample 7-15 days; standard container 12-20 days; custom first order 20-35 days (repeat 15-20 days). Door body 2-year warranty, operator/motor 3 years (servo motor 5 years), with spare parts dispatched by DHL/FedEx within warranty.
