Accessories, hardware, and upgrades for roll-up doors
WHITING®’s Vinyl Side Seals offer a simple and cost-effective way to protect against debris and water ingression, keeping your door panels and components in optimal condition for longer. They also prevent water and dirt from getting into the compartment, protecting cargo from damage and your staff from slips on a wet surface. By providing a weather-tight seal, airflow through the compartment is reduced, which is also useful for temperature-sensitive cargo. The reduced maintenance requirements combined with the ease of installation make vinyl side seals a wise investment. Comes as standard with WHITING®’s Premium Plate, Q-Plate, and Laminated Premium models.
Extend the lifespan of your roll-up door and reduce maintenance costs by keeping your interior hardware rust-free with this Interior Stainless Steel Hardware Package. Compared to an external protective coating which can be worn away, stainless steel is inherently resistant to corrosion and rust. As parts wear with use, the stainless steel will continue to be corrosion-resistant despite any scratches in the material, providing increased durability and decreasing downtime for repairs.
This hardware package includes adjustable top closure brackets & slides, mounting plate, centre and end hinges, and a heavy-duty bottom roller bracket with rivets; however, all items are available to be ordered separately for your own customized look.

The back door of a van body or trailer is the most visible, as well as, the most recognizable area of your vehicle, and it provides an ideal surface for customizable advertising that could reach thousands of customers every day. Aesthetics are also an important factor in a customer’s decision-making process. The overall aesthetics of a single truck or an entire fleet can influence a potential customers attitude and perception of a company. Make your advertising budget stretch further and create a high-end, professional appearance by using a quality, custom painted roll-up door.

AMDOR offers three varieties of optional sill plates designed to provide a smooth protective sealing surface, complete the visual framing of your door, and in some cases to reduce water ingression. Our original sill plate offers the convenience of a sweep-out design with an interior water stop.
The majority of builders now offer a step-down compartment design to reduce the ingression of water and debris. For step-down applications, AMDOR offers two models with varying depths. Please consult our drawings or contact your Territory Manager for specification support. Over the years we have also partnered with a number of builders to produce proprietary side frames to suit specific build characteristics. Following an engineering review and sign-off process AMDOR will run and stock a custom side frame that is proprietary to your firm.

Top gutters are a key component of the roll-up door’s framing structure. They prevent water from running into the compartment or dripping onto the operator during use. The top gutter also incorporates a retainer for a top gutter seal designed to mate with a top landing seal when the door is in the closed and secure position. AMDOR offers two top gutter models. Our standard is a 2” gutter with seal. We also offer an optional 6” Extended Top Gutter which may be used in place of a traditional header and can accommodate top gutter drops ranging from 1” to 5”. The Extended 6” top gutter provides additional flexibility and may save the builder time and labor during construction. Both models are available in an optional continuous top gutter configuration where one top gutter may be used above a series of adjacent doors.

The Flex-HD pull strap was designed as a way to help operators close their doors while remaining unobtrusive when securing the door. Attached to both the bottom panel of the roll-up door and the sidewall of the compartment, this pull-strap allows you to easily and safely close the door—reducing staff injuries and downtime—while also making the door easier to secure without a strap in the way, improving efficiency. The Flex-HD pull strap is available in a variety of lengths to suit a range of door heights. Suitable as either an OEM or retrofit option.
| Opening Height | Strap Length | Part Number |
| 20" to 37" | 18" | AY-9355-18 |
| 38" to 48" | 24" | AY-9355-24 |
| 49" to 70" | 36" | AY-9355-36 |
| 71" to 84" | 48" | AY-9355-48 |
AMDOR utilizes an industry-leading, multi-point double-dead bolt manual locking system. When deployed lock rods extend from the bottom panel through each side frame and into the body structure. Lock rods are stabilized by robust bottom panel end caps and connected to the central locking cam by upgraded corrosion-resistant flat bars. A variety of lock cores are available to suit virtually any security requirement. A redundant specially modified Manual Key Locking assembly is provided as part of our AMLOK Power Locking System to allow for a manual override in the event of an onboard vehicle power failure. Due to the custom nature of the system, this option is only recommended for new door builds.

This highly versatile system may be installed anywhere along the door frame thanks to our adjustable proprietary reader module. The reed switch is an electrical switch operated by an applied magnetic field originally invented by Bell Telephone Laboratories. The reed module is paired with a magnet which can be installed in an instantly recognizable red slat shoe or alternatively within a sealed enclosure in the bottom panel end cap. This NFPA-compliant system has been tested to one million cycles under load and works seamlessly with Luma Bar® Integral light installations. Each module features dual 15 amp circuits capable of powering a wide range of compartment accessories, in addition to the cab warning system. The magnetic door ajar switch is available with a positive or negative ground for either new or retrofit installations.
Over the years many customers have had negative experiences with competing brands of magnetic door ajar switch systems. In response to those requesting a non-magnetic door ajar switch solution AMDOR developed a sealed mechanical switch system. Using a push-button trigger within the striker, this mechanical system detects when the door has been left open and sends an alert to the driver. The primary benefit of this system is that the switch may only be activated by positive engagement of the lift bar. The military-grade switch is hermetically sealed for protection against water and debris. Each system is tested one million times under load, and in conjunction with Luma Bar® Integral lights, for NFPA compliance. This mechanical switch is designed to be utilized as a trigger to the ground with a conventional automotive relay handling power distribution. The mechanical door ajar system is suitable for both new and retrofit applications.
