‘Nothing beats the aesthetic appeal of real wood’

Experience

Syston Doors have been manufacturing timber rolling shutters & grilles for over sixty years and provide the largest range available.

Applications

Designed for use in bars, reception counters, display areas, serveries, homes, cupboards, etc.

Specifications

For maximum versatility we manufacture our timber shutters in four attractive styles.

Our ‘T134’ (25mm lath) is available in White Beech, White Oak, Red Oak, Utile (Mahogany), White Ash, Maple and Red Cherry as standard.

Our ‘T234’ (50mm lath) is available in White Oak, Red Oak, Utile (Mahogany), White Ash, Maple, Red Cherry and Colombian Pine as standard.

N.B. ‘T234’ moulding is not available in white beech and will not ‘reverse roll’.

Our ‘T244’ uses a timber lath in White Oak, Red Oak, Utile (Mahogany), White Ash, Maple, Red Cherry and Colombian Pine with an insert of either grey, black or blue plastic, stainless steel or aluminium. (Other insert options may be possible – please consult our sales department).

Due to the nature of this ‘combination’ lath, this shutter will always be supplied with a factory finish to suit your own requirement.

Our ‘T9134’ rolling grille, manufactured using our ‘T134’ (25mm) moulding where each alternate lath is omitted for a space of 229mm x 25mm to form an attractive single spaced grille effect, or with two laths removed for double spacing of 229mm X 50mm.

Guides are supplied in matching timber although they can be supplied in aluminium if desired.

We will always attempt to source other timbers as required.

Laths are connected by steel aircraft cables concealed within the laths or by continuous zinc plated chain hinge on our ‘T234’ lath when over 2000mm clear high.

Ironmongery and Locking

On manually operated shutters & grilles we include flush lifts in brass with the option of other finishes.

Locking is by shootbolts on shutters.

An option for a cylinder lock to the bottom rail is available. This throws a lock bar into each side guide and not the counter top/floor.

A cylinder lock is included as standard on ‘T9134’ grilles.

Locks would normally be omitted if electrically operated.

As you would expect our timber shutters and grilles are all manufactured to suit your exact requirements.

Manual shutters can be manufactured up to 3000mm in length with the option of fixed or removable, straight or angled, intermediate guides allowing total flexibility in length of ‘run’ required.

Removable guides will usually be fixed into the counter or floor by use of flush fitting spring loaded retaining keeps (dustcaps).

Dependent on timber species we can manufacture our timber shutters and grilles, when electrically operated, up to 4000mm clear wide and 4500mm clear high. *
*Please contact our sales office to confirm the maximum size available in your choice of timber.

We can also provide tambour shutter curtains with or without side guides for use in cabinets, etc.
