Trac-Rite Introduces New Security Guard Door to Meet Growing Demand for Enhanced Self-Storage Security

SUN PRAIRIE, WI — January 6, 2026 — Trac-Rite, a leading manufacturer of high-quality roll-up doors for self-storage and commercial applications, announced today the launch of its new Security Guard Door, available in models 944SG and 977SG. Designed to address the rising need for stronger protection as break-ins increase and facilities transition toward remote management, the Security Guard Door delivers advanced security without sacrificing affordability or ease of installation.

The Trac-Rite Security Guard Door features a reinforced bottom bar and an optional dual latch design, providing up to three times more resistance to forced entry than standard roll-up doors. Engineered to deter intruders and protect customer belongings, the SG system sends would-be burglars looking for easier targets—while giving owners and operators greater peace of mind.

“As more facilities operate remotely, the door itself has become the first and most critical line of defense,” said Kellen Anderson, Director of Sales at Trac-Rite. “The Security Guard Door was designed to stand watch when operators aren’t on site. It’s a cost-effective way to dramatically increase security, protect customer assets, and add value to every facility.”

In addition to its reinforced construction, the SG system is compatible with smart locks, allowing operators to integrate enhanced security and monitoring technologies as part of a modern, connected facility. The Security Guard Door can be installed directly at the factory on new doors, and retrofit kits are available for existing 944 and 977 Trac-Rite doors, making upgrades fast and seamless.

“The SG Series gives our customers flexibility,” Anderson added. “Whether they’re building new or upgrading an existing facility, they can add meaningful security without major disruption or expense.”

Ideal for self-storage facilities, sheds, barns, carports, and light commercial applications, the Trac-Rite Security Guard Door reinforces the company’s commitment to strength, reliability, and innovation.
