Overhead Motors
Operators for overhead and vertical-lift gate and door openings — mounted, wired and configured with the controls that run them.
What It Is
Automation above the opening instead of beside it
Overhead operators drive an opening from above, which suits sites with no room for a gate to slide or swing. They're typically found on commercial and industrial entrances, yard openings and service bays.

What We Look At
Confirmed at the Opening
Overhead applications live and die on structure and clearance, so both are verified on site.
- 01
Headroom & structure
Overhead equipment depends on what's above the opening — clear height, framing and mounting points are confirmed before anything is specified.
- 02
Opening type
Overhead and vertical-lift gate and door openings at commercial, industrial and yard entrances where a horizontal path isn't available.
- 03
Controls & wiring
Wall stations, remotes, readers and keypads are wired to the operator along with the conduit and power the equipment needs.
- 04
Safety devices
Compatible photo-safety eye sensors and detection devices are installed as part of the automated opening.
