Both roll-up doors and spiral doors are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and even residential applications. However, they differ significantly in design, speed, security, insulation, and application. Roll-up door, also called rolling shutter, or roller shutter door, consists of horizontal slats or a single sheet of metal that rolls into a coil above the opening when opened. It coils around a drum. Spiral door, also called high speed door, or high speed spiral door, operates at high speed while maintaining security, insulation, and durability. It moves along a round/oval spiral track,
