Rolling Shutter In-wall Installation
(between the Jamb installations)
Ideal for new construction because the box-cover housing and rails are hidden behind the building façade, making a rolling shutter truly hidden when not in use.

Benefits of Our Factory Finishing :
Whereas other Roll-Up doors finished on the jobsite tend to suffer from unsightly missed coverage on the top, bottom and ends, Woodfold insists on individually finishing each piece prior to assembly. Factory finishing also prevents moisture buildup inside the wood, which leads to warping and can seriously hamper both the operation and the appearance of the door.
Quality and Strength :
Our custom Roll-Up doors can be finished in clear lacquer, custom stains and/or paints. To increase strength and durability, each hardwood slat is individually attached with strong, plastic-coated, aircraft-grade stainless steel cables and fixed at top and bottom. Last, each Roll-Up door is installed and tested prior to shipping, then sent in durable crating, thus ensuring everything possible is done to have all pieces arrive undamaged.
LEED® Credits & FSC Certification : :
Select FSC* certified hardwoods (subject to availability) may contribute toward LEED** credits or other green building rating systems.
Our Guarantee :
All our doors are custom made to fit each opening and warranted against failure due to defective materials or workmanship.

Can your Roll-Up door be painted?
Definitely! Here , we're all about choice, so you can specify that your door be either factory-finished with clear lacquer, custom paint or stain, or unfinished for field application of paint or stain. Should you select an unfinished door, however, extreme care should be taken to ensure that the individual slats are not stuck together with dried paint or stain. This will adversely affect door operation.A Tip: Our factory finishing services are generally less expensive than field finishing, and usually offer superior results. Each component is finished prior to assembly, assuring complete coverage, and problems with oils or grease coming in contact with the door during installation are minimized. Also, every finish we use is water-based and 100 percent environmentally safe - a big plus for the planet.
