SLAT MATERIAL.
All Tucson Rolling Shutter slats are made of roll formed aluminum that
is injected with insulating foam. This foam core reduces the
conduction of heat, cold and sound passing thought the slat. The
outer finish is powder coated with a textured, baked on enamel
coating that resists abrasion.
 
DIFFERENT DENSITIES.
The slats come standard in normal density foam or can be
injected with high density foam for added strength and protection.
Additionally, we can special order an extruded aluminum slat for
maximum strength and security. The AR/44 is standard on most
applications and the AR/55 is used for patio or wide applications.
SCREEN
MATERIAL. The best products need to have the best fabric
available this is why we use the vinyl coated fiberglass sunscreen
offered by 3G Mermet. For 56 years 3G Mermet has perfected the
weaving of glassfiber into fabrics.

WHY FIBERGLASS?
Pound for pound fiberglass is
stronger
than steel
and it resists rotting
and mildew.
The material also has a commercial fire classification because it
resists heat and is non-combustible.
This is important because we want our screen to absorb heat keeping
it off your window or door.

SUNFIX® MOTOR.
How do make a great system even better? We worked with Somfy to
build the SunFix® electronics into the motor. Somfy took it one more
step and added radio remote control making the system even more user
friendly. Homeowners like the convenience of the wireless one touch
operation. Dealers like the easy of installation. Here are some of
the features that make this system so appealing:
• Self-contained electronics
• Self-contained radio remote receiver *PDF Link to our Just got
cooler ad.*
• Self-corrects for fabric stretch over on this side
• Positive top stop
• Drop and lock in one pass
• Preset fabric tension in lock position

MANUAL OPERATORS
Manual operation for rolling shutters include pull strap, crank
strap and crank wand. The strap operators are best where security is
not a top concern because they cannot be used with our Blocksur
security feature. Crank wands have gears that ‘lock’ the shutter in
the down position using the BlockSur.
Pull straps
require you to pull on the strap to bring the shutter up & down.
Crank straps uses the same strap as the pull that goes into a
box and you crank a handle attached to the box to bring the unit up
and down.
Crank wands
are long handles held with both hands and turned to raise and lower
the shutter. This crank is also used in conjunction with the
electric on the manual override units.
