01 · Overview

Fire Door Operator at a Glance

A fire door operator automates fire-rated rolling and sliding doors that compartment smoke and flame — and its defining requirement is fail-safe behaviour: on alarm or power loss the door must close reliably and stay closed, while normal daily operation still meets safe force limits for people nearby. Fire-rated rolling-door motors are a recognized specialist product class in the operator industry: established rolling-door motor makers list dedicated fire rolling-door motors alongside their AC and DC lines [SOURCED: jielongmotor.com].

RAX Door Technology manufactures fire door operators matched to EI60 / EI120 fire-rated door systems, built on an in-house servo motor assembly line and validated in a 100,000-cycle fatigue test lab. Control logic supports fail-close release on fire-alarm signal, with anti-pinch safety edge and bottom air-bag sensor options for everyday safe use, and WiFi / RS485 connectivity for building-management integration. As a pure manufacturer (no on-site installation), we engineer the operator to your fire door’s weight, travel and certification route, then ship from prototype to full production runs — full flexibility on order quantity — with wiring diagrams and English manuals under full OEM/ODM terms.

04 · Engineering Delivery

How to Specify (Buyer Guide)

1. Door Data

Door type (roller shutter / sliding), weight, width × height and rated assembly — the basis for torque matching and technical drawing confirmation.

2. Fire Rating & Alarm Interface

Required EI class (EI60 / EI120) and your fire-alarm signal type; we engineer the close-on-alarm logic and release behaviour to match.

3. Power & Backup

230 V AC or 24 V DC, battery backup needs and the required behaviour on power loss (close / hold / controlled descent).

4. Daily Use & Safety

Cycle frequency for normal operation, safety edge / air-bag / light-curtain inputs, and any BMS integration via WiFi / RS485.

05 · Customization

OEM / ODM & Customization

RAX supports full private-label production of fire door operators: custom colors, operator matching to your fire-door 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.

06 · Compliance

Applicable Standards

EN 13241

Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates — crushing/shearing protection, safe force levels, EMC; the harmonized basis for CE marking.

EN 12453

Safety in use of power-operated doors — requirements and test methods for powered doors where people have access.

EN 1634-1 (per project)

Fire-resistance test method for door assemblies; the EI60 / EI120 classification of the complete installed fire door is verified per project [ESTIMATE].

EN 12978 / EN 12604

Design and testing of protective devices (safety edges, contact strips) and mechanical test methods referenced by EN 13241.

  • From Custom Engineering to Container-Load Delivery — 50+ countries, 5,000+ overseas projects served
What happens on fire alarm or power loss?

The operator accepts a fire-alarm dry-contact input and closes the door reliably; on power loss the configured fail-safe behaviour (gravity or controlled descent, with optional battery backup) takes over [ESTIMATE — confirmed per project]. Daily operation keeps full anti-pinch and safety-edge protection.

Which fire rating can the door system achieve?

RAX supplies EI60 / EI120 fire-rated door systems matched to this operator. Fire classification is a property of the complete installed assembly and is engineered and verified per project to EN 1634-1 practice [ESTIMATE] — send your specification and we confirm the route.

What certifications does the fire door operator carry?

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. Fire-resistance data for the door assembly is arranged per project; AS/NZS 4505 (Australia) and UL (North America) counterpart test data can be supported.

Can it integrate with our fire-alarm panel and BMS?

Yes. A dry-contact fire-alarm input is standard practice, with WiFi / RS485 connectivity options for building-management integration and RF remotes for authorized daily use. Confirm signal types with our engineers on technical drawing.

Can you OEM / private-label fire door operators?

Yes. Color, operator matching to your fire-door 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.
