Features
Private-Door is designed to automate existing personal
doors in the home or office. The design of Private-Door incorporates many unique
features that cannot be found in other manufactured commercial or light
commercial operators that are often used for residential doors.
Two Year Warranty
Confidence is synonymous with quality. Private-Door is
manufactured by Tri-Cor International, a manufacturer of automatic gate operators
since 1978. The empirical knowledge in the design of automatic gate operators
required to move 1,000-pound gates was the foundation of the design of
Private-Door.
No Electric Strike Release
The Private-Door System and Assistant use the Door Release,
which is exclusive to Private-Door. The Door Release eliminates the need for labor
intensive and involved installation of an electric strike release.
Free-Float System
A unique feature of Private-Door is the “Free-Float
System.” When the door is manually operated, the Private-Door will Free-Float,
providing uninhibited, resistance-free movement. During manual operation of some
competitors' operators, the door reverse-gears the motor, making the door
difficult to move and causing additional wear to the operator.
Obstruction Sensing
If the door encounters an obstacle during operation, Private-Door stops on contact and reverts to the Free-Float
System. The door can then be
moved manually so the obstacle can be removed.
Minimum Force
Private-Door is
designed to use a surprisingly small amount of power to reliably automate a full
size door.
Zero Resistance
Private-Door completely automates your door. Some
competitors' operators only open the door and require the installation of an
expensive spring closer to close the door. This will add considerable resistance
when the door is opened. The spring closer may slam the door closed or not shut
the door securely.
Keyless System
When the recommended hardware is in place and the Private-Door System is activated by a remote
control, the unit will open a locked door.
Timer to Close
A timer that is adjustable from 6 to 60 seconds will automatically close
the door so you don't have to.
Low Voltage Wiring
The Private-Door is powered by a plug-in 12-volt transformer that will plug into
any outlet. No expensive high-voltage electrical wiring is
required.
Paint or Stain
The covers of the units can be painted or stained to match
your décor.
Edge-Mounted
All Private-Door components mount to the edge of the door,
not to the face, avoiding the need to drill mounting holes into the surface of the door.
Optional Battery Backup
The Battery Backup will permit the Private-Door to continue to operate
during power outages.
