Under Floor Low Energy Operators - UFSO
Macwood underfloor low energy 'slow-open' automatic / manual door operators are ideal for use by everyone, especially people with disabilities.
Macwood underfloor door operators can be easily fitted without compromising building aesthetics, as the operator is concealed, leaving it out of sight.
SafetyBy definition a low energy door operator, when opening a door, will not exceed 1.6 joules of kinetic energy which is the safe maximum specified by BS 7036 part 4. The safety sensor mounted on the push side will automatically re-open a closing door. Doors fitted with a Macwood 'UFSO' operator can always be opened manually. They function as a normal hydraulic damped door closer which, in the event of a power failure is an essential feature. Operator Options
