GENERAL
Alpine Overhead Doors, Inc., Insulated rolling service doors are designed using computer generated technology and are fabricated according to your specific requirements. The door curtain consists of interlocking flat slats, foamed-in-place with CFC-free and HCFC-free polyurethane insulation. Endlocks are
attached to each alternate slat allowing the door to maintain proper alignment as it travels both up and down. If your door project requires you to meet specific windload criteria, we also incorporate windlocks to the ends of each the door curtain slats. Slats are roll-formed, galvanized steel and are prepared with a rustinhibitive prime coating that is either baked on or powder coated within

COUNTERBALANCE ASSEMBLY
The counterbalance assembly is designed with a helical torsion spring which is housed in a pipe barrel. The springs are computer designed to effectively counterbalance the door for a standard 20,000 life cycles of operation. High cycle springs can be designed to satisfy up to 400,000 life cycles. Slat material comes standard in 24 gauge. Optional gauges are 22, 20 and 18 gauge. The bottom bar is standard in prime steel. Optional finishes in galvanized, stainless or aluminum. Weather seals are provided on the bottom bar, the exterior guides and the interior of the hood. Optional weather seals can be provided for the interior guides and or the lintel.

GUIDES
Guides are designed using structural steel angles with a minimum thickness off 3/16”, minimum 1/14” slotted connections and removable bellmouth curtain stops which allow for curtain maintenance without removal of the guides. They are equipped with vinyl weather seals.


SPRING COUNTERBALANCE
To be housed in a steel pipe with a diameter and wall thickness to restrict maximum deflection to 0.03” per foot of door width. Springs are of the helical torsion type which are designed to include an overload factor of 25% for optimum ease of operation. The springs are grease packed and mounted on a cold rolled steel inner shaft. Spring tension is adjustable from the outside of the end bracket plate. Sealed ball bearings prevent wear on the pipe shaft. Life Cycle 17.5M thru 400M.


BRACKETS
Steel plate not less than 1/4” thick with ball bearings at rotating support points. When bolted to the wall the mounting angle it supports the counterbalance
assembly and forms an end enclosure. Option: Stop Lock Bearing which prevents the door from free falling in the event of a drive operation failure.
HOOD Hexagon (Option: Square or Round) Made from #22 gauge galvanized steel and formed to fit the contour of the end brackets. Optional material in stainless steel or aluminum. Equiped with a neoprene air baffle. Finish Options: phosphate, baked enamel or powder coated.


FASCIA GALVANIZED (OPTIONAL)
Useful where the area behind the hood is open. Especially applicable with pre-engineered buildings.
