Chain Drives

Chain drives for automatic doors

Chain drives are an efficient and reliable solution for the smooth operation of automatic doors. Especially in the area of industrial rolling doors. But Chain drives are also used in garage doors, in various facilities or in public buildings. Especially whenever there is not enough space for a direct mount drive or its installation. This is because a Chain drive requires very little space, as it is usually located underneath the winding shaft of the door. The weight of the door also plays an important role in the choice of drive: a Chain drive moves even large industrial doors effortlessly and is therefore the first choice for heavy doors.

Chain drives - strong workers for high efforts


Classic sprocket drive systems consist of a sprocket, a chain and a drive - which work together to open and close the door. Depending on the manufacturer, they may also have a special base for secure installation. This ensures that the drive can safely withstand the enormous forces. It is usually also possible to retrofit a Chain drive to existing door systems without any problems, as the motor bracket is mounted on the wall or a steel beam, i.e. externally.
