A Reliable Roller Door to Secure Your Garage
New garage door mechanism innovations are few and far between as it can be a bit like re-inventing the wheel. The classic designs such as up and over, sectional and roller doors have been around for a long time so when something refreshing comes along we get a bit over excited here at the Garage Door Superstore. Hormann have launched the Rollmatic as their solution to the domestic roller door which we saw at the UK launch at the beginning of July.
I am pleased to say the door is extremely impressive and reflects Hormann’s industry leading design, innovation and German build quality. Since its launch in Europe, the Hormann Rollmatic has proven to be popular with steady sales growth. Hormann have solved the main issue that all other roller doors seem to have, which is the safety edge device that detects obstacles to prevent the risk of crushing. The safety edge device is most commonly the part that fails on roller doors and we have had numerous warranty claims relating to this.
Hormann have solved this by not using a tubular motor but by using the same proven DC motor they use for their sectional and up & over doors mounted on the side of the roller door. This motor reliably detects obstacles without the need for an unreliable contact strip. The other major benefit of the Rollmatic when compared to other Roller Doors is the Guarantee Hormann provide. Unlike the other brands, there are no ambiguous clauses in the small print.
The Rollmatic has a Safe & Reliable 10 Year Warranty, the parts have 5 years, as does the motor and 2 years for the radio equipment for the remote controls. The finish on the door is beautiful and is easily the best looking roller door lathe. The wind bracing is superior to prevent annoying rattling in the wind. We have been waiting some time for the Hormann roller door and the wait looks worthwhile and the installation is simple, see the video below.
How to Avoid Getting In & Out of Your Garage Like Indiana Jones
If you’ve ever felt like you needed to do a stunt roll under your electric garage door to get out of the way of it when it’s coming down or you were in such a hurry to get into your garage that you slid under the door before it fully opened you might want to think about upgrading your garage door opener to the Hormann Supramatic.
The high tech Supramatic has a colossal opening speed of 22cm per second which means it can open your garage door up to 50% faster than other garage door motors.
To avoid wear and tear on both the door and operator, the Hormann Supramatic E accelerates as it opens and then slows to a gentle stop. The motor is extremely quiet with its maintenance free drive belt.
When you close the door it comes down gently so you have plenty of time to get out of the way if you have pressed the button and are leaving through the garage door. It has a reliable safety cut out to avoid damage to your car or injury should it encounter an obstacle when it closes.
This proven and reliable garage door opener comes with a 5 Year Hormann Guarantee for your complete peace of mind. As our most popular electric garage door operator, we have sold and installed hundreds of these over the past 4 years and we have only ever had one faulty product in all that time.
