Magnum - Roll Shutter
Magnum – Mini Overhead Door and Hurricane Shutter
Here at Alutech United, we’ve developed a new kind of hurricane shutter known as Magnum. The Magnum doubles as both a mini-overhead door for security purposes and as a hurricane shutter. Our Magnum shutters also come in small housing sizes.
Our one-of-a-kind “end retention system” eliminates the need for storm bars. This patented technology allows for smoother, quieter shutter operation and smaller housing sizes while also offering the same level of protection. Our Magnum shutters exceed the toughest standards required by both international and domestic building codes.
Some of the unique features of the Magnum Shutter are:
- End retention system – eliminates the need for storm bars
- Efficient roll diameter – minimizes housing size
- Patented roll shutter system
- 57mm extruded aluminum slat
- Stainless steel end retention bolts
- New slat appearance
- Building Code Approved
- Approved for block and concrete construction
- Approved for wooden structures
- Perforation and hole punch option
- Slimline and commercial lock options
