SECURITY ROLLING SHUTTER
Pentagon rolling shutters are designed to be extremely low maintenance, with a recommendation to clean them
periodically to keep them in good condition and operating smoothly. Cleaning of your Pentagon rolling shutter should be
performed at regular intervals or when dirt, debris, or dust build-up is visible. Without periodical cleaning your shutter
may not be able to open and close properly, and could cause damage to the shutter which is not covered by your
warranty.
We recommend using warm water with a non-abrasive cleaning solution so that your rolling shutter does not get
scratched. Maintain a smoothly operating shutter by following these cleaning instructions.
1. Put your rolling shutter into the closed positon.
2. Wipe the front with warm water mixed with a mild detergent (such as dish soap) using a soft rag.
3. Dry the front of the rolling shutter with a soft towel.
4. If your rolling shutter closes off an open area (ie: accessible from both sides), repeat steps 1-3 on the other side of
the shutter.
5. If your rolling shutter is not accessible from the other side (ie: closes over a window), roll the shutter up into the
open position.
6. Remove the four screws that secure the box housing lid and carefully remove the lid. You will see the shutter
curtain rolled up inside the box housing. The outer side of this curtain roll is the back side of the shutter which you
want to clean.
7. A helper should slowly lower the shutter curtain. As it is being lowered and exposed, wipe the shutter clean as per
steps 2 and 3.
8. When fully cleaned and the shutter is in the closed position, slowly roll the shutter back up into the open position.
9. Reinstall the box housing lid onto the box housing with the four screws you removed in step 6.
1. If your rolling shutter appears to be jammed and it will not go up or down, do not force it to operate. Check if the
problem is stated in the ‘Trouble Shooting’ section of this manual and perform the actions described. If the problem
is not stated in the trouble shooting section, please contact your dealer for assistance. Your warranty may be
voided if damage is caused from forcing your rolling shutter up or down.
2. While operating your rolling shutter, you should be aware of any objects or people in the path of the shutter.
Objects in the path of the shutter may get damaged and people could get injured. Ensure that all outward opening
windows obstructing the shutter are closed to prevent the rolling shutter and/or windows from getting damaged,
which your warranty does not cover.
3. It is not recommended to operate your rolling shutter if snow, hail, or ice has covered it. To prevent damage and
have optimal performance, wipe/clean the shutter surface from any obstructions.
4. It is not recommended to allow children to operate the rolling shutter at any time for safety concerns.
