Automatic De-Latching Kit for use on Single Hormann Up and Over Doors.

The kit provides additional security for your Hormann garage door when fitted with an electric operator.

Instead of relying on the garage door operator retaining the door is the closed position without utilising the door’s locking,

(standard practice on all operator installations), this kit allows you to connect the garage door operator to the door’s existing locking.

So how does it work?

When the electric operator receives a command to open the door, the initial travel disengages the latches from their keeps and then the door travels

back into the garage in the normal way until fully open.

On receiving a command to close the door the reverse happens ending with the door reducing speed,

(when using a soft start/stop operator), and gently engaging the door’s latches securely.
