9570 LA Series - Wind Load Rated Roll Up Sheet Door Without Wind Locks
Certified Wind Load Rated Door
The 9570-LA Series roll up sheet door is designed for storage facilities in coastal and high-wind areas that require wind-rated protection without the complexity of wind lock systems. Combining proven wind resistance with smooth daily operation, these doors meet building code requirements in moderate wind zones while giving your tenants the same easy access they expect from standard doors. Each 9570-LA Series door uses a slip design that achieves wind ratings through engineered curtain tension and guide configuration, eliminating the need for J-clip wind locks. The result is code-compliant protection in wind-prone areas with simpler operation and lower maintenance than traditional wind lock doors.

- For proper exterior door installation, a 1-1/2" deep rain lip must be formed in the concrete slab extending a minimum of 4-1/2" from the interior face of the jamb.
- Each 9570-LA door is engineered and tested to meet specific wind load requirements, with ratings ranging from +31.1/-35.3 PSF to +16.7/-19.0 PSF depending on door width, making it ideal for high wind applications.
- Optional insulated roll-up doors are available for the 9570 Series. This insulation primarily serves as a radiant barrier that helps reduce condensation in humid environments and is especially beneficial for doors exposed to direct sunlight. The insulation can significantly reduce interior door surface temperatures in hot conditions. Please note that while insulation provides these benefits, it doesn't create a fully climate-controlled environment on its own, as air gaps around the guides are necessary for proper door operation.

FAQ
A wind-rated roll up door is specifically engineered and tested to meet specific wind load pressures to withstand high wind speeds and extreme weather conditions. These doors comply with building codes in high wind zones, utilizing features like reinforced components, such as galvanized steel guides and seamed panel profiles for enhanced durability.
Coastal areas are prone to strong winds, hurricanes, and other severe weather conditions that can cause extensive damage to structures. Wind-rated roll up doors, like the 9570-LA Series, are designed to safeguard storage units and belongings by providing reliable protection against these environmental challenges. Their durability and efficient operation make them ideal for harsh coastal environments.
The 9570-LA Series is engineered to meet wind load ratings from +31.1/-35.3 PSF to +16.7/-19.0 PSF, depending on door width. These ratings ensure the door can withstand pressures associated with high wind events, helping to meet stringent building codes in wind-prone areas.
Yes, optional insulation is available for the 9570 Series roll up door. The insulated option reduces condensation in humid environments and lessens interior surface temperatures when exposed to direct sunlight. However, it does not create a fully climate-controlled environment due to necessary air gaps for door operation.
Properties in areas classified as high wind zones, such as regions prone to hurricanes, tornadoes, or severe storms, often require wind-rated roll up doors to meet local building codes. You can check your area's wind load requirements in local code regulations or consult with a professional installer to determine if a wind-rated door like the 9570-LA Series is necessary for your property’s safety and compliance.
