• A battery backup system enables you to open and close the door using your handset if there is a power failure. The battery will re-charge itself when the power returns. This is ideal if the area is prone to power cuts.

• No need to worry about giving the kids a key to the house or a garage door handset. A digital keypad allows entry to the garage without a remote control transmitter. Great for children, as they can enter the garage using a security PIN and handy if you’re in the garden or if you go out for a run or to walk the dog.

• An external key release allows the door to be manually
  operated during a power failure by using a key to remove the barrel with a cord attached to the disengagement handle.

• An external key switch may be used instead of a handset to open and close the door automatically using a key. This key switch also acts as a external key release in the event of a power failure.

• If you have a young child or pet running about the garage, you may wish to consider infra-red beam sensors as an additional
  safety measure. If the door is closing when the beam is broken, it will automatically stop and reverse. ATA recommends the use of infra-red safety sensors for added safety and security.

Will suit ANY make of roller garage door up to 5100mm wide by 3100mm high.  The door must be well balanced i.e. you should be able to lift the door up manually with very little effort in case of an emergency.  The door should open smoothly with very little resistance and should not stick or bind in the guide tracks.  If the door is not well balanced then we will adjust the door's settings prior to installation.

Side clearance.  The Slim-Drive EasyRoller simply slots on to the side of your roller door and may be fitted to either the left hand side or right hand side of the door.   The distance between the edge of the door curtain and the inside of the bracket must be at least 40mm, however, for easier access it is recommended that at least 95mm is allowed.  

Electricity outlet in garage.  The Slim-Drive EasyRoller is pre-fitted with a standard UK 3-pin plug.  You will need to have an electric socket in the garage so that the unit may be plugged in.  For your safety we will not wire the automatic into the mains in the garage.  

Other access to garage.  In case of a power cut there is an emergency release cord that you may pull to de-activate the automatic.  This will allow you to open the door manually so you will always be able to get into or out of your garage.  If you do not have a side door into the garage then we strongly recommend the installation of an optional emergency key release.  (This is not necessary if you have another means of access to your garage.)

These guidelines are provided so that you may assess if your garage is suitable for our automatics.  If you already have a roller door, retractable up-and-over door or sectional door and your garage meets all the above requirements then it is not usually necessary to arrange a site survey prior to installation.  If you are in any doubt then please Contact Us to arrange a site survey.
