Electric garage door opener: The key to greater convenience and security

A ZAPF garage door can also be opened and closed manually. However, an electric door opener with remote control offers significantly more convenience and also increases security.

Key advantages of garage door openers with remote control

• Increased convenience: With the remote control, the garage door can be conveniently opened or closed on the way to the garage. This saves time and increases convenience.
• No need to leave the car: There is no need to leave the car to operate the garage door, which is particularly advantageous in bad weather such as rain, sleet, snow and storms.

Electric garage door: the technology

ZAPF garage doors are equipped with a durable electric motor, a permanently installed control unit and a remote control. The remote control sends a signal to the control unit, which activates the motor to open or close the garage door (up-and-over or sectional door).

Various control options

1. Classic remote control: This works via radio signal and allows you to open or close the door from your car or when leaving the house.
2. Garage door control via radio code keypad: A permanently installed remote control that is operated by a numerical code. Ideal for children or for granting temporary access to neighbours.
3. Garage door control via fingerprint scanner: Offers increased security through individual fingerprint recognition.
4. Maveo Stick: An app-based control that allows you to control the garage door and, in the case of premium sectional doors, also the fan position.

Safety through light barrier technology

In addition to the remote control and ZAPF Connect, light barrier technology can be installed. This prevents the door from closing or opening if people, animals or objects are in the way. This technology significantly increases the safety and reliability of the garage door operator.
