Innovative Sentry roll-up doors and hallway systems redefine self-storage

Central States - Innovative Sentry roll-up doors and hallway systems redefine self-storage

Durable, customizable roll-up doors and hallway systems are setting a new standard for self-storage solutions.

Central States Manufacturing has unveiled its new Sentry™ roll-up doors and hallway systems, setting a new standard in self-storage construction. Designed to offer streamlined convenience and enhanced durability, these products are now available through Central States’ extensive distribution network, including Metal Central retail locations, Building Works metal building packages and Elevate Structures offerings.

With this latest addition, Central States continues its legacy of providing comprehensive, single-source solutions for metal building applications.

Tim Ruger, Central States Manufacturing president stated, “We are thrilled to introduce our new line of doors and hallways designed specifically for storage solutions. The Sentry family of products represents our ongoing commitment to innovation and quality, ensuring our customers have access to the best products for their needs.”

Advanced design for real-world challenges

The Sentry 6500 roll-up doors stand out for their innovative features and user-focused design. These doors are constructed with pre-galvanized steel alloy springs that adhere to ASTM 228 standards, providing superior strength and fatigue resistance without the need for lubrication. The 26-gauge double-seamed curtain ensures long-lasting durability, while the aluminum-extruded bottom bar with bulb astragal minimizes rust and enhances longevity.

Customers also benefit from an easy installation process. The slotted system eliminates the need for bolts, while color-coded hardware kits simplify assembly, saving time and reducing errors. Available in 32 standard colors, the doors are backed by a 40-year warranty and are compatible with Bluetooth® locking systems, offering both versatility and modern convenience.

Industry-endorsed excellence

Developers are already recognizing the value of the Sentry line. Brad Simmons, owner of Storage Center+ in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, noted a remarkable improvement in quality and performance.

“These 6500 doors operate noticeably smoother than our other properties’ doors,” Brad said. “They are quieter and feel better. We feel good about the Sentry product – it was the right decision for our Phase 1 and we have Sentry doors and hallways spec’d for our next five buildings in the design stage now.”

A trusted partner for self-storage professionals

Central States is the only national metal manufacturer providing roll-up doors, frames, roofing and wall panels in a single package, making it a go-to partner for self-storage developers, contractors and owners. With a 100% employee-owned model, the company fosters a culture of innovation and accountability, ensuring its customers receive the best products and service in the industry.
