What tools and equipment are needed to install an aluminum rolling door?

Installing aluminum rolling doors is a job that requires precise measurements, professional tools, and a certain amount of skill. Here are some basic tools and equipment you need to install aluminum rolling doors:

Basic tools
Screwdriver: Used to install and remove screws.
Wrench: Includes adjustable wrench and fixed wrench, used to tighten or loosen nuts.
Electric drill: Used to drill holes in the door opening to install expansion bolts.
Hammer: Used for knocking or removal work.
Level: Ensure that the door body is installed horizontally.
Steel ruler: Measure the size of the door opening and the length of the rolling door.
Rectangle: Check the verticality of the door opening.
Feeler gauge: Check the tightness of the door seam.
Plumb: Used to determine the vertical line of the door opening.
Professional equipment
Electric welder: In some cases, it may be necessary to weld the parts of the rolling door.
Handheld grinder: Used to cut or trim materials.
Electric hammer: Used to drill holes in concrete or hard materials.
Rolling door mounting seat: Used to fix the roller of the rolling door.
Guide rail: Guide the running track of the rolling door.
Roller: The winding part of the rolling door.
Support beam: Used to support the weight of the rolling door.
Limit block: Control the opening and closing position of the rolling door
.

.
Auxiliary materials
Expansion bolts: Used to fix the rolling door to the door opening.
Rubber gasket: Used to reduce noise and vibration.
Glue: Used to fix certain components.
Steel plate: Used to reinforce the door opening or make a mounting seat
.
Installation steps
Measurement and positioning: According to the control lines of each section and the building elevation line, as well as the ceiling elevation and the wall and column finishing line that have been marked, the center line of the fire shutter door position rail and the position of the roller and the elevation line are determined, and marked on the floor, wall and column surface
.
Install the guide rail: locate, mark, and drill holes at the opening, and then fix the guide rail. The installation method of the two guide rails is the same, but be careful to ensure that they are on the same horizontal line.

Install the left and right brackets: check the size of the door opening and use it as a basis to determine the specific installation position of the bracket. Then, drill holes separately and fix the left and right brackets. Finally, use a level to adjust the level of the two brackets to ensure that they are absolutely horizontal.

Install the door body on the bracket: determine the length of the central axis according to the position of the door opening, then lift the door body onto the bracket and fix it with screws. Then, check whether the connection between the door body and the guide rail and bracket is good. If there is no problem, tighten the screws. If there is a problem, debug it until the problem is solved.

Spring debugging: twist the spring in a clockwise direction. If it can be twisted for one circle, the dark rotation of the spring is just right. After the spring is debugged, you can uncover the door body packaging and introduce it into the guide rail.

Rolling door switch debugging: After the rolling door is installed, you can open and close the rolling door several times to check whether it is operating normally and whether the screws are tightened. If you find any problems at this time, you can solve them in time to prevent safety accidents in future use.

Install the limit block: The limit block is generally installed on the bottom rail of the door body, and try to install it on the cut edge of the bottom rail.

Install the door lock: First, determine the installation position of the door lock, close the door body, insert the key, and twist the key so that the lock tube contacts the inner side of the door body track. Then make a mark and open the door body. Then, drill a hole at the marked position, install the door lock, and the entire rolling door is installed.

Installing an aluminum rolling door requires certain professional knowledge and skills. If you are not sure whether you can complete the installation, it is recommended to contact a professional installation team for installation.
