What products does Swagat Industries manufacture?
We manufacture motorized, gear operated, push & pull, galvanized (GI), powder coated, aluminium, perforated, grill and fire rated rolling shutters, as well as high speed industrial doors, fire resistant steel doors and collapsible gates.
Is Swagat Industries a certified manufacturer?
Yes. Swagat Industries is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company and an MSME (Udyam) registered enterprise, established in 2016.
Do you supply and install outside Ahmedabad?
Yes. We are based in Ahmedabad and serve clients across Gujarat and other states of India. Share your site location and opening sizes and we will confirm supply and installation.
Which rolling shutter is best for a warehouse or factory?
For warehouses and factories we usually recommend galvanized (GI) shutters with gear or motorized operation. For busy, climate-controlled doorways, a high speed PVC door is better because it opens and closes in seconds.
How do I get a quotation for a rolling shutter?
Send the width and height of each opening, the type of shutter you prefer and your site location using the enquiry form, WhatsApp, or by calling +91 76240 09600. We will reply with a quotation and, where needed, arrange a site visit.
Do you provide custom sizes?
Yes. Every shutter, door and gate is made to order to fit the opening, with the operation type, material and finish chosen for the application.
Do you repair and service rolling shutters?
Yes. We repair and service rolling shutters — springs, laths, gear boxes and motors — and can convert manual shutters to motorized. See our shutter parts & services page or send photos on WhatsApp.
Do you supply rolling shutter motors, gears and remotes separately?
Yes. Along with complete shutters we supply rolling shutter gear, remote and motor systems and related materials. Tell us your shutter size and current setup and we will suggest the right parts.
Motorized Rolling Shutter
Can a motorized rolling shutter be opened during a power cut?
Yes. Every Swagat motorized shutter includes a manual chain drive, so the shutter can be raised or lowered by hand when electricity is not available.
Do you supply single-phase or three-phase motors?
Both. We fit single-phase motors for shops and smaller openings and three-phase motors for heavy industrial shutters, chosen according to the shutter size and weight.
Can an existing manual shutter be converted to motorized?
In many cases, yes. Share the size and condition of your shutter and our team will advise whether a motor kit can be fitted or a new curtain is recommended.
Gear Operated Rolling Shutter
What is the difference between gear operated and motorized rolling shutters?
A gear operated shutter is moved by pulling a chain connected to a gear box and needs no electricity. A motorized shutter is moved by an electric motor at the push of a button. Gear shutters cost less to run; motorized shutters are faster and more convenient for frequent use.
When should I choose a gear operated shutter instead of push-pull?
Choose gear operation when the opening is too large or the curtain too heavy to lift comfortably by hand. The gear reduction lets one person operate a large shutter safely.
Push & Pull Rolling Shutter
Which rolling shutter is best for a small shop?
For a typical shop front, a push and pull rolling shutter is the most economical and practical choice. If the opening is wide or the shutter is opened many times a day, consider a gear operated or motorized shutter instead.
Galvanized (GI) Rolling Shutter
Why choose a galvanized rolling shutter?
Galvanizing coats the steel with zinc, which protects it from rust and corrosion. That makes GI shutters long-lasting and low-maintenance for warehouses, factories and outdoor openings.
Powder Coated MS Rolling Shutter
Is a powder coated shutter better than a painted one?
Powder coating is applied electrostatically and cured, so it forms a tougher, more even layer than ordinary paint. It resists chipping and fading better and needs less maintenance.
Aluminium Rolling Shutter
Aluminium or steel rolling shutter — which should I choose?
Aluminium shutters are lighter, quieter and naturally rust-free, which suits homes, showrooms and interiors. Steel (GI or MS) shutters are heavier and stronger, which suits warehouses, factories and high-security openings.
Perforated Rolling Shutter
Are perforated shutters as secure as solid shutters?
They use the same robust construction and locking as solid shutters; the perforations only add visibility and airflow. For the highest security, a solid shutter is recommended; for display fronts, perforated is the better balance.
Bright Bar Grill Rolling Shutter
What is the difference between a grill shutter and a perforated shutter?
A grill shutter is made of steel rods and links, so it is mostly open and gives maximum visibility and ventilation. A perforated shutter is a solid slat curtain with small holes, so it gives more privacy and protection while still allowing a partial view.
Fire Rated Rolling Shutter
How is a fire rated shutter different from a normal rolling shutter?
It looks and operates the same way, but the materials and fixings are chosen to resist fire, so the shutter helps stop fire and smoke spreading from one area to another.
What fire rating can you provide?
The fire rating depends on the specification and the opening. Contact us with your requirement and the applicable fire-safety norms and we will recommend a suitable shutter.
High Speed Industrial Door
How fast does a high speed door open?
Swagat high speed doors run at an adjustable 0.8 to 1.5 metres per second, set through a variable frequency converter that also gives soft starting and soft stopping.
Can high speed doors be used outdoors?
Yes, in sheltered areas with low wind loads and moderate temperatures. Side guides with wind hooks help the curtain withstand higher wind velocity.
What happens if the door loses power?
The drive has a built-in anti-drop electromagnetic brake, which ensures the door does not free-fall under any condition.
Fire Resistant Steel Door
Where are fire resistant doors required?
They are typically required on escape staircases, corridors, plant rooms and fire compartment walls in auditoriums, cinemas, industrial plants, refineries, hospitals and high-rise buildings, as specified by local fire-safety norms.
Are vision panels and panic bars available?
Our fire doors come in varied patterns and designs. Share your drawings or requirement and we will confirm the hardware and vision-panel options for your project.
Collapsible Gate
Can a collapsible gate be fitted along with a rolling shutter?
Yes. Many shops install a collapsible gate behind the rolling shutter for an extra layer of security and ventilation when the shutter is open.
