Rolling Service Commercial Doors

Rolling steel service doors are commercial overhead doors made from interlocking metal slats that coil into a compact roll above the door opening.

Unlike traditional sectional overhead doors, which travel along horizontal or vertical tracks, rolling service doors use a compact coiling design that helps maximize usable overhead space.

DockStar rolling service doors are designed for dependable access and security in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, loading docks, parking structures, and industrial buildings.

Commercial rolling steel doors offer a practical combination of durability, security, and space efficiency.

Their rugged metal construction makes them suitable for demanding commercial environments, while the overhead coiling design minimizes the space needed for door storage.

Additional benefits include customizable materials, slat profiles, insulation options, and operating systems.

Whether you’re securing a warehouse, protecting an industrial opening, or upgrading an existing commercial building, DockStar rolling service doors provide a versatile solution.

Yes. DockStar offers both insulated and non-insulated rolling steel service door models.

Insulated models feature polystyrene or polyurethane insulation to help reduce heat transfer through the door curtain.

Non-insulated models provide a practical option for buildings where thermal efficiency is less important, including unheated warehouses, parking garages, and storage facilities.

The best configuration depends on your building’s climate, operating conditions, and insulation requirements.

DockStar insulated rolling service doors offer published insulation R-values ranging from 4.7 to 7.2, depending on the model.

Model 6182 features polystyrene insulation with an R-value of 4.7.

Models 6202, 6222, and 6242 feature polyurethane insulation with an R-value of 7.2.

R-value measures resistance to heat flow. Higher values indicate greater thermal resistance, although actual building performance also depends on weather sealing, door operation, and installation conditions.

DockStar rolling service doors are available in several metal constructions to suit different commercial and industrial applications.

Steel models are offered in 18-, 20-, 22-, and 24-gauge configurations.

Aluminum Model 6244 features 16-gauge aluminum construction.

Stainless Steel Model 6266 features 22-gauge stainless construction.

Steel gauge, material, environmental exposure, and security requirements should all be considered when selecting the appropriate door.

Rolling service doors are available with different slat profiles that affect the door’s appearance and construction.

Flat slat doors feature a flatter, more streamlined curtain profile. This design is commonly selected for commercial openings where a clean, uniform appearance is preferred.

Curved slat doors feature a rounded, traditional rolling door profile.

DockStar offers both flat and curved slat configurations across select rolling service door models. Available profiles vary by model and material.

DockStar rolling steel service doors are available in a wide range of sizes for commercial and industrial openings.

Depending on the model, available maximum widths reach 30 feet, while maximum heights reach 28 feet.

These maximum dimensions are model-dependent and may not be available together.

Proper sizing also requires evaluating the opening dimensions, headroom, side clearance, mounting conditions, and selected operating system.

DockStar can help review your facility’s requirements and recommend an appropriate door configuration.

Yes. Depending on the door model, size, and application, rolling steel service doors can be configured for manual, chain-hoist, or motorized operation.

Manual operation may be suitable for smaller openings with less frequent use.

Chain-hoist operation provides a mechanical method for operating doors where additional lifting assistance is needed.

Motorized operation can improve convenience and accessibility, especially at frequently used commercial and industrial openings.

DockStar can help determine the appropriate operating system for your door size and daily operational needs.

DockStar rolling steel service doors are available in a variety of standard colors and material finishes.

Depending on the model, available options include White, Gray, Brown, Tan, and Unpainted Galvanized.

Specialty material options include a Clear Anodized finish for select aluminum doors and a Stainless finish for stainless steel models.

Select models also offer up to 188 powder-coat color options for additional customization.

Color and finish availability varies by door model. DockStar can help you select a finish that complements your building’s appearance.

No. Although rolling service doors and rolling fire doors may look similar, they serve different purposes.

Rolling service doors are primarily designed for commercial access, security, durability, and space efficiency.

Rolling fire doors are specially designed and tested to meet applicable fire-resistance requirements and may include automatic closing features activated by a fire alarm or other approved release system.

Standard rolling service doors should not be assumed to provide a fire-resistance rating.

If your facility requires a fire-rated opening, DockStar can help you evaluate an appropriate rolling fire door solution.

Routine maintenance helps keep commercial rolling doors operating safely and reliably.

Maintenance should include inspecting the door curtain, guides, bottom bar, weather seals, and operating components for signs of damage or wear.

Motorized doors should also have their operators and safety devices inspected according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Springs, tensioning systems, and other high-load components should only be adjusted or serviced by qualified door professionals.

The appropriate maintenance schedule depends on how often the door operates and the conditions in your facility.
