Drives

Door operators are used for the electrical operation of automatic door systems. Depending on the door type, there are different operator systems and requirements for the door operator.

Drives for industrial doors

Industrial door operators are used for the electric opening and closing of special doors used in industrial environments. These industrial doors control access to warehouses, factories, logistics centres and other industrial facilities. Unlike ordinary doors, industrial doors are usually larger, more robust and designed for use in demanding environments. Depending on the specific requirements of the site, these doors can have different designs, including sliding gates, sectional doors, rolling doors or folding doors.

There are different types of door drives to automate the various types of doors, from simple sectional door drives and special sliding door drives to rolling door drives with integrated safety brakes. Drives with variable output speeds and frequency inverter operation are used for door applications with particularly high running speeds, such as high-speed doors.

Garage door openers

Garage door openers are primarily used to enable the automatic operation of garage doors. These operator systems play a crucial role in residential buildings, collective garages and small commercial buildings, where they are used to make access to the garage more convenient and efficient. Essentially, Garage door openers automate the process of opening and closing garage doors, allowing users to, for example, drive their vehicle into the garage without manually opening the door.

Garage door openers are available in a variety of designs, including chain openers, screw openers and belt openers. The choice of operator type depends on various factors, including the size and weight of the garage door as well as personal preferences in terms of noise levels and maintenance requirements.

Modern Garage door openers are often equipped with smart features that allow the status of the garage door to be monitored and control to be taken over via smartphone apps.
