High-traffic entries, silent control
Powerful, comfortable and extremely quiet ED 100 and ED 250 operators for single- and double-leaf swing doors, backed by the globally engineered dormakaba door control hardware — overhead closers and concealed floor springs — that makes premium doors feel effortless.
It is a drive fitted to a conventional hinged door so the leaf opens and closes under power. Alumina Engineering supplies the dormakaba ED 100 and ED 250 operators for single- and double-leaf doors, with automatic or Push&Go control and low energy mode as the default.
A sliding door moves its leaves sideways and needs clear side panel space but no swing clearance; a swing door operator powers an existing hinged leaf and needs swing clearance but far less structural change. Swing operators suit retrofits, barrier-free doors and fire- or smoke-rated leaves; sliding doors suit continuous, high-volume pedestrian traffic.
Yes — the operators are suitable for fire-proof and smoke-proof doors, emergency exits and evacuation routes, and can be activated by radar, push pad or access control.
