Commercial Residential Trac-Rite Zip-Roll Screen Door Operators 988WL Door
Description
The 988WL earns high marks for strength. It's ideal for a wide range of commercial uses. In addition, Trac-Rite's windlock system provides maximum wind resistance for this model. As wind blows against the 988WL, the curtain's windlocks engage with the door guide for a strong interlocking grip. This grip keeps the curtain securely in the guide.
Available in custom sizes from 11'W x 8'H to 16'W x 16'H in 1" increments, the 988WL features a 26-gauge, rigid-rib steel curtain that is durable, attractive, and requires little maintenance. The 988WL's dead-axle design with torque-tube assembly allows the door to operate with ease.

Drums are 12" diameter spiral x 1-1/2" wide, 16-gauge, zinc-coated steel with grease-filled ball bearings mounted in the center of the drum to promote smooth operation. Springs are helical torsion, oil tempered, and factory lubricated to increase life cycle. Axle, drums, and springs are enclosed in a 26-gauge galvanized spiral tube to provide even curtain support. |
