Series 790CW

When your project requires a door that can handle high windload conditions, yet is attractive, versatile, and economical, the 790CW fits the job. This rolling sheet door (790) withstands windloads to 41/61/5psf, fits openings up to 20' by 16' (6096 mm by 4877 mm), and is available in 14 standard colors. Fabricated of high strength, 26-gauge galvanized steel curtain sections, 14-gauge universal guides, and steel bottom bar angle, the 790CW is a strong and durable door. With quick-connect components, universal through-hole guide design, and unique curtain profile and stepped counterbalance rings that minimize nesting, the 790CW is designed for fast installation, smooth operation and low maintenance, too.
