Automatic Garage Doors
Garage door automation with remote control is an obvious convenience and security enhancement for your new or existing door. Even a top-quality drive unit is surprisingly inexpensive – particularly when purchased as part of our special ‘garage door + automation’ installation packages. The automation equipment we specify for your job is guided by the principle of achieving a completed installation that is legally compliant, safe, reliable and long term. The technical capabilities of the drive unit specified must, at the very least, equal the technical requirements of the door!
Hormann SupraMatic range: the most technically advanced device of its kind. Extremely sophisticated microprocessor control ‘maps’ the load characteristics of the door to be driven; and then precisely configures its force outputs to match– optimizing: performance in service, obstruction detection/ safety functions, and operator running speeds. The self–tensioning Kevlar toothed belt transmission is particularly smooth and quiet and incorporates an auto-mechanical locking ‘claw’ that maintains – uniquely – effective physical security without power supply. Remote controls are manufactured from much higher quality materials – aluminium, chromed zinc, high grade plastics – having the same durable ‘feel’ and appearance as ‘premium car’ key fobs. Encryption is 128 bit – as secure as online banking.
The SupraMatic is the Garage Door Workshop’s preferred automation kit for new installation work. Our guarantee is as impressive as the equipment itself: 5 years onsite, parts and labour.
