Motor Operators For Service Doors And Grilles

Operators are compact integral units designed for durability and reliability.  Electrical enclosures are NEMA rated.  Motor horsepower and components are conservatively rated for each door size and type according to best engineering practice. 

Motor operators pay for themselves in convenience and conditioned air conservation.  Control stations can be located to save time and allow uninterrupted traffic flow, and energy svings provided by motor operation soon returns the original investment.

Operator mountings are available to suit all clearance conditions.  Design permits mounting to the side, above or in front of the hood.

Safety Bottom Edge
