Grifco door openers

The Grifco range of door openers uses a patented clutch mechanism, known as the Automatic Chain Engage Mechanism (ACEM), which allows safe and easy manual operation of roller doors and shutters in the event of a power cut.

The range can be operated without power from the ground due to their easy-to-use pull system which works off the opener gears, eliminating the need for someone to climb a tall ladder to release the gearbox in order to manually wind up the roller door. This is particularly useful for emergency services buildings and other commercial and industrial businesses in areas prone to natural disasters like flooding, not only to ensure the safety of workers, but also to streamline the efficiency and response times of emergency services workers.

The door openers can also allow a business to potentially keep functioning despite a lack of power, allowing warehouse doors to be opened by a chain from the ground or even ensuring owners can try to relocate large, valuable equipment more quickly in the case of fire or flood.

The door openers can be easily hand operated with minimal exertion in times of power cuts and the range of automated door solutions are suitable for light commercial through to sectional doors and heavy industrial roller shutters, with the openers offering security and convenience to all industries.
