Unsure about "columns" I'm not sure about "columns" as the next stage in the instructions says "Posizionare quindi il secondo pannello, avvitare anche le viti superiori dei castelletti laterali. Procedere analogamente con i successivi"

We're talking about automatic industrial doors with a PVC curtain made from sections (the panels). Are the "castelleti" perhaps some sort of framework into which the panels are fitted to make the finished door? Any ideas???? Please.

columns

I believe castelleti in this case are the side columns that are attached to the main door panel.
