What are Sliding Plates?

Sliding plates are special plates equipped with wheels compatible with any type of tubular motor for rolling shutters.

They fit into the sides of the motor and they are very simple to install. In addition to the advantages we will see below, they allow to significantly reduce the effort that the motor applies during the lifting phase of the shutter allowing to considerably increase its duration over the years.

Advantages of Sliding Plates

We have already seen the main advantages of using sliding plates, but let’s make a more detailed list:

• Easy to install
• Noise reduced during the winding phase
• Compatible with any type of tubular motor for rolling shutters
• Reduction of the effort applied by the motor when lifting the shutter with a consequent increase of its duration

To install the system, it is only necessary to insert the roller assembled with the plates and the rolling shutter inside the rails in the side caps.

During the rolling or opening phase of the shutter, the plates arranged in the lateral sides of the box allow the linear sliding of the motor and the roller on which the profiles are wrapped up. The sliding plate has no motor, but it is moved by the weight and the sliding of the shutter.

Thanks to the plates installed in the side caps, the rolling axis of the roller shutter varies according to its winding diameter, making the sliding more linear.

This mechanism considerably lightens the rolling and opening of the shutter, reducing also the effort that the guides and the tubular motor have to bear.
