Commercial Roller Shutter Door Help Required

[RGG]

I've got a brand new unit - leased.

Electricity isn't connected yet.

I've googled this but can't see a solution.

The roller shutter has chains to use when there's no power.

But I can't get it to work.

Is there some kind of clutch system or physical locking system in the motor housing that I need to engage and if so what do I need to be looking for?

Thanks, hope someone can get me sorted.

[OldGermanHeaps]

Yes, but they are all different depending on manufacturer.
Do you know the manufacturer ?

[RGG]

It’s an “ultimate “ make

Thanks for getting back

I couldn’t see anything on their website

Manuals for them seem st at a quick glance.
Looks like there is a silver actuator next to the chain to engage the clutch.
Most of the time you would pull them to engage.

Thanks,

I'll get a ladder and try and figure it out.

Hope you're still here, OldGermanHeaps

It's looking like I just flick down this bracket and the chains will locate on the cogs, do you think?

Yes I would say so about the bracket. You won’t break it by trying.

From experience of manually overriding electric shutters, be prepared for a lot of work for little gain....... when we last had a power cut and needed to shut ours we had to take it in turns to close the 10m tall shutters.

[OldGermanHeaps]

If its not the sprung gold flap, it will be the silver L shaped actuator next to it.

[RGG]

Thanks both,

I think that’ll be it

Something like the bracket is holding the chain
And that lever must be there to activate the chain roller mechanism

😂 I’m prepared for the long haul, sorry about the pun
