Heavy-duty severe-weather systems

Hurricane and cyclone protection beyond the standard window.

Apollo supplies protection pathways for shopfronts, hotel entrances, restaurants, garages, service openings, warehouses and other commercial openings that require more than a conventional residential shutter.

What project teams need to know about Commercial & Large-Opening Protection.

Use this page for early system selection; final performance follows the exact tested, listed or engineered configuration and the actual project.
01

What is Commercial & Large-Opening Protection?

Apollo supplies protection pathways for shopfronts, hotel entrances, restaurants, garages, service openings, warehouses and other commercial openings that require more than a conventional residential shutter.

02

What project information should Apollo receive first?

Send the project location, building type, drawings or clear photographs, relevant dimensions and structural information, and any known wind, design-pressure, impact, flood, shelter, access or local-code requirements that apply to this system.

03

Can this system be specified from website information alone?

No. Site hazard, dimensions, loads, support and anchorage, exact product configuration, installation method, applicable technical evidence and local approvals can all change the final specification.

04

Does Apollo install this protection system?

Apollo is supply-only. Final engineering, fixings, installation, approvals and local code compliance remain with the appropriate manufacturer, approved specialist or client-side project team unless expressly included in the written scope.

05

Can Apollo review this system for international projects?

Yes, where the product and project can be supported. Destination hazard, climate, freight, documentation, local engineering, certification and installation responsibilities are reviewed before supply.

01Project guidance

A five-metre opening is not a larger bedroom window.

As width and height increase, curtain, track, motor, head support, anchor and structural demands change substantially. Large commercial openings need their own system selection and engineering pathway.

02Project guidance

Commercial protection can cover public and operational areas.

Potential applications include shopfronts, hotel reception areas, restaurants, service entrances, workshops, storage buildings and selected warehouse openings.

  • Retail + shopfronts
  • Hotels + resorts
  • Restaurants
  • Garages
  • Workshops
  • Storage + service areas
03Project guidance

Security and hurricane performance are separate requirements.

A security roller shutter can provide excellent everyday closure without being a verified hurricane system. Apollo keeps storm, impact and security claims separate and configuration-specific.

04Project guidance

Motorisation must follow shutter size and operating duty.

Motor capacity, duty cycle, control strategy and emergency operation need to correspond with the curtain weight, opening size and how frequently the system operates.

Project-specific performance

Performance follows the exact system and project.

Opening size, positive and negative design pressures, impact requirements, tracks or frames, anchors and structural substrate all affect final performance. Numerical wind, impact and certification information is matched to the applicable tested or engineered configuration for the project.
