ROLLER SHUTTER DOORS
Roller shutter doors provide a practical combination of security, durability and efficient use of space.
Unlike conventional hinged doors, roller shutters open vertically and roll into a compact position above the opening. This makes them suitable for areas where floor and surrounding space need to remain clear.
Simak Engineering fabricates roller shutters according to the required opening size, application, material and operating method.
Our roller shutters are suitable for:
- Shops and retail premises.
- Warehouses and godowns.
- Factories and workshops.
- Garages.
- Commercial buildings.
- Loading and service areas.
- Modified shipping containers.
- Store rooms.
- Restaurants and service counters.
- Industrial premises.

- Shopping centres
- Showrooms
- Commercial premises
- Service areas
- Display environments
From approximately KSh 35,000 – KSh 120,000+
