How to operate your Door

General

Roller garage doors open vertically along guide tracks.

Always keep the opening area of the door clear and when operating the door, always be certain that there are no people, especially children or objects close to the door.

When manually operating doors, only raise and lower the door using the lift handles installed for this purpose; these ensure an easy, controlled and smooth action. Improper use could result in injury and damage to your door.

When locking the door, ensure that the lock mechanism engages securely.

With automated doors, only open and close the door using the control devices supplied with your door.

In the event of power failure follow the operation instructions for this circumstance.

Note: When opening or closing the garage door you must monitor the product until it has completed its operation. All products have a stop and reverse safety device that could be activated during operation causing the door to stop and reopen a short distance, leaving the door in a partly open position.

Power failure: In the event of power failure the garage door can be operated using the manual hand crank supplied with your door. Engage the hook on the hand crank in the eyelet on the left or right hand side of the door box and crank the handle to open or close the door. If you have an external override fitted, insert the winding handle and crank the handle to open or close the door. Take care not to overwind the door in either direction.
