How to open and close the rolling door when there is a power outage?
In the design of all current types of rolling doors, there are features to ensure operation in cases of power outages or emergencies. However, for each type of rolling door as well as each case, there are different operating methods. Specifically:

1. Using the clutch pin:
The clutch is a device that connects the roller technical box to the user’s hand position for the most convenience. Clutch latches are often equipped in most solid panel rolling doors to help operate the door in cases of power failure or emergency.

Note that you should completely close the clutch latch after use to avoid making noise as well as avoid damage after operating the door again.

* If you are indoors:

– Unscrew the clutch latch

– Use the equipped sliding door hook, pull up to open the door or pull down to close the door

– Close the clutch lever to lock the door

* If you are outside:

The clutch is usually located inside the door to ensure that in the event of an emergency, people inside can escape easily. Therefore, if there is a power outage and you are outside, the only way is to call the rolling door technical team to assist in opening the technical box and adjusting the door opening.

2. Use the rolling door chain:
The chain is a part of the rolling door, often equipped in rolling door lines used to close and open the door manually in cases of sudden power outages or unexpected incidents.

Using a roll chain is very simple, but you need to note that the roll chain has two opening and closing directions. You just need to pull the chain in the desired direction and you can easily open the door manually.

3. Using a UPS:
A battery is similar to a backup charging device, helping to store electricity and use it in necessary situations. Therefore, in the event of a power outage, you can operate the rolling door easily, automatically and without effort.

Therefore, installing a battery is extremely necessary and is always recommended by manufacturers to limit risks in necessary cases.
