Central States Manufacturing, a supplier of metal-building components and roofing for self-storage and other industries, has introduced a new roll-up door to its product line. Sentry Model 7500 joins the line of hallway systems and doors, including Model 6500, which the company released earlier this year, according to a press release.
Sentry 7500 meets wind-rating industry standards. The high-carbon, galvanized, steel-alloy springs are coated prior to forming to ensure 100% corrosion protection and don’t require greasing. The 26-gauge, double-seamed curtain is resistant to environmental damage. The door includes additional fastening locations and 12-gauge wind clips to aid in wind-load resistance.
In addition, the stainless-steel latches accept all commercial key locks and padlocks, with an available punch pattern that integrates with various Bluetooth latches in the market, the release stated. The slotted system doesn’t require bolts to affix the door to the guide. The bracket and latch are factory installed, and the hardware is unit packed so it doesn’t require sorting on the job site. The 7500 comes in 32 color options and features an aluminum-extruded bottom bar with bulb astragal to avoid rust.
