Treat the operator and door as one system

The operator must suit the door construction, opening size, mounting arrangement, traffic, power supply, and control method. Starting with the complete application makes it easier to choose the motor, rail or drive, activation devices, and accessories together.

Contact Sales

Which doors can use a commercial operator?

Operator options are available for sectional overhead, full view, rolling steel, shutter, and high speed door systems. The operator must be matched to the complete door and opening.

Which control methods are available?

Options can include wall stations, remotes, keypads, pull cords, radar, magnetic loops, and photoelectric sensors.

Are backup-power options available?

Backup batteries are available with applicable operator configurations where continued access during a power interruption is a priority.

Can one operator be selected before the door?

It is better to select the operator with the door. Door size, weight, balance, track arrangement, traffic, and power supply all affect the appropriate operator package.
