At Garage Door and More, we understand that choosing the right commercial garage door operator is crucial for maintaining smooth business operations in Charlotte. Our comprehensive selection of commercial garage door openers and operators provides businesses with the reliability, durability, and advanced functionality needed to handle demanding commercial environments while ensuring the safety of employees and customers.

Understanding Commercial Garage Door Openers / Operators

Commercial garage door operators are sophisticated systems designed to handle the rigorous demands of business environments. Unlike residential openers, commercial operators are engineered for frequent use, heavier doors, and harsh operating conditions. The key factors that determine the right operator for your business include door type, size, weight, and the number of daily operating cycles your facility requires.

Types of Commercial Garage Door Operators

Heavy-Duty Operators

Our heavy-duty commercial operators are engineered for the most demanding applications, capable of handling up to 60 cycles per hour under constant load conditions. These operators feature continuous-duty motors available in multiple horsepower configurations and are perfect for high-traffic facilities such as distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and busy loading docks.

• Rated for 25+ cycles per hour with up to 90+ cycles per day
• Available in 1/2, 3/4, and 1 horsepower configurations
• Single-phase and three-phase power options
• Advanced safety features including progressive braking systems

Standard Duty Operators

Standard duty operators provide reliable performance for commercial applications with up to 60 cycles per hour during peak usage periods. These operators offer superior functionality with innovative performance features, making them ideal for businesses with moderate to high usage requirements.
