Swing door and gate operators are selected primarily by leaf length and weight. Unlike sliding operators (which rate by total gate weight), swing operators must generate enough torque at the hinge axis to move a leaf of a given width and mass — the moment arm matters. Nice segments its swing range into multiple families for light-to-heavy leaves: Wingo, Walky, Toona (4/5/7), Hyppo, Hyke, Titan and Big-Fab [SOURCED: niceforyou.com]. The variety of families reflects the fact that a small pedestrian door and a 4-metre industrial gate leaf need very different torque and arm geometry.
RAX Door Technology manufactures swing door operators for both pedestrian and industrial applications. Our servo VFD drive delivers soft start/stop — reducing shock on hinges, arms and leaf panels — while WiFi/RS485 connectivity and radar/geomagnetic/light-curtain sensor inputs are integrated on the same control platform. CE conformity to EN 13241 and EN 12453, validated in our 100,000-cycle fatigue test lab. As a pure manufacturer (no on-site installation), we match the operator to your leaf dimensions and ship with wiring diagrams and English manuals — from a single sample unit, full flexibility on order quantity.
We size operator torque to leaf width, weight and hinge type instead of selling a one-size unit — send the leaf datasheet and we calculate the match.
RAX’s servo VFD drive eliminates the mechanical shock of direct-on-line starts, extending hinge, arm and leaf panel life — critical for high-frequency pedestrian and industrial use.
Validated against a 100,000-cycle fatigue testing protocol in our in-house lab; operator warranty 3 years, servo motor 5 years.
ISO 9001:2015 and CE to EN 13241 / EN 12453, with SGS material reports; AS/NZS 4505 and UL counterpart test data can be supported.

Figures marked [ESTIMATE] are industry-typical conventions, not RAX test data; RAX’s own model-level leaf/torque datasheets are confirmed per inquiry. RAX figures are from the approved brand brief.
Leaf type (single / double), width × height, weight, hinge type and opening direction — the basis for torque matching and arm selection.
Cycles/day, temperature range (RAX products are tested from −30 °C cold storage to +50 °C desert conditions), indoor/outdoor exposure, wind load.
Articulated arm (standard), concealed/underground, or sliding arm — we confirm geometry compatibility with your hinge and wall structure.
RF remote quantity, WiFi / RS485 integration, safety edge / photocell / light curtain inputs, smart-building bus requirements.
RAX supports full private-label production of the Swing Door Operator: custom colors, operator matching to your leaf line, packaging printing and installation-manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU). Start with an OEM sample and scale to container-load branded production. Custom molds, Tooling records are archived for up to 5 years — no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA (27-year zero-leak record). Standard lead time 12–20 days per container; FOB Tianjin / Qingdao, FCL & LCL supported.
Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates — crushing/shearing protection, safe force levels, EMC; the harmonized basis for CE marking.
Safety in use of power-operated doors — requirements and test methods for powered swinging doors where people have access; covers hinge-side and arm-side entrapment zones.
Design and testing of protective safety devices (safety edges, light curtains, contact strips) — applicable to all sensor accessories for swing operators.
Mechanical aspects — requirements and test methods for door leaves, hinges and arm fixings, referenced by EN 13241.
Swing operators are rated by maximum leaf width and weight — the torque needed at the hinge axis depends on both dimensions. Nice, for example, offers 7+ swing families from light pedestrian (Walky) to heavy industrial (Big-Fab, Titan). Send us your leaf width, height, weight and hinge type and our engineers calculate the correct torque match.
The standard choice is an articulated arm (surface-mounted on the door frame). For concealed installations, underground operators are available. Sliding-arm variants suit doors where the arm must clear an obstruction. RAX confirms the correct arm geometry based on your door layout.
230 V AC supply is common for heavier industrial swing operators [ESTIMATE], while 24 V DC motors suit intensive-use, battery-backup and pedestrian safety applications (lower voltage = safer for public areas). RAX builds both variants and advises the right one for your duty cycle.
RAX holds ISO 9001:2015 and CE to EN 13241 (industrial door) and EN 12453 (operator safety), with SGS material reports and product liability insurance. AS/NZS 4505 (Australia) and UL (North America) counterpart test data can also be supported.
Yes. Color, operator matching to your leaf line, packaging printing and manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU) are all supported, from an OEM sample to container-load branded production, under NDA with tooling archived up to 5 years.
