Compact door installation made easy

Have you ever installed a Compact folding door? Yes? Then you already know that you have to pay attention to different things when installing the door than with a roller door or an overhead door. Nevertheless, it makes sense to refresh your knowledge from time to time. If you have never installed a Rolflex folding door, it is important that you acquire the necessary specialist knowledge. Because you can only install the door quickly and easily if you know exactly what to look out for.

The installation of the Compact folding door

We have been offering training courses for installers in our Compact Academy for several years and are always very happy to welcome our dealers here at Rolflex. However, we understand that it is not always possible to let mechanics take part in training courses at Rolflex, as these are indispensable for the company. To ensure that we can support you around the clock anyway, we have made installation videos that show the installation of the Compact door in detail.

Click on the following links to find the videos with German, French or Italian subtitles.

TIP! Make sure you always have the installation manual at hand. You can find it here.
