Sliding door and gate operators are selected primarily by maximum door/gate weight (kg). The market segments into clear weight classes: Nice, for example, divides its sliding range into “Up to 400 kg”, “400–600 kg”, “600–1000 kg” and “Over 1000 kg” — with models like Robus400, Robus600 and the heavy-duty Run2500 class [SOURCED: niceforyou.com]. “HS” (high-speed) variants serve intensive-cycle logistics applications. For industrial sliding doors (as distinct from garden gates), the operator must also handle track friction, wind load and the inertia of large leaf panels.
RAX Door Technology manufactures sliding door openers matched to your door weight, track geometry and cycle profile. Our servo VFD drive delivers soft start/stop — reducing mechanical shock on the track, chain and sprocket — while WiFi/RS485 connectivity, radar/geomagnetic/light-curtain sensor inputs and explosion-proof (Ex d IIB T4) motor options are available from the same control platform. CE conformity to EN 13241 and EN 12453, validated in our 100,000-cycle fatigue test lab. From a single sample unit, full flexibility on order quantity.
We size the operator to door leaf weight, track friction and wind load instead of selling a one-size unit — send the door datasheet and we calculate the match.
RAX’s servo VFD drive eliminates the mechanical shock of direct-on-line starts, extending track, chain and sprocket life — critical at high cycle counts.
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 weight/voltage datasheets are confirmed per inquiry. RAX figures are from the approved brand brief.
Door type (sliding / bi-parting), leaf weight, width × height, track type and radius — the basis for weight matching and drive selection.
Cycles/day, temperature range (RAX products are tested from −30 °C cold storage to +50 °C desert conditions), indoor/outdoor exposure, wind load.
230 V AC vs 24 V DC, battery backup needs, chain vs belt drive layout, servo/VFD soft start/stop requirements.
RF remote quantity, WiFi / RS485 integration, safety edge / photocell / light curtain inputs, smart-building bus requirements.
RAX supports full private-label production of the Sliding Door Opener: custom colors, operator matching to your 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.
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 sliding, swinging and rolling doors where people have access.
Design and testing of protective safety devices (safety edges, light curtains, contact strips) — applicable to all sensor accessories.
Mechanical aspects — requirements and test methods for door leaves, referenced by EN 13241 for track, hinge and panel integrity.
Sliding door operators are rated by maximum door leaf weight in kilograms. Nice, for example, segments its sliding range into weight classes up to “Over 1000 kg” (Run2500 class). The correct size depends on leaf weight, track friction, wind load and duty cycle — send us the door datasheet and our engineers calculate the match.
230 V AC supply is common for heavier industrial operators [ESTIMATE], while 24 V DC motors suit intensive-use, battery-backup and safety-critical applications. RAX builds both variants and advises the right one for your duty cycle and site conditions.
Servo VFD delivers soft start/stop — the motor accelerates and decelerates smoothly instead of jerking at full torque. This reduces mechanical shock on the track, chain, sprocket and door leaf, extending component life especially at high cycle counts. It also enables precise speed profiling and better obstruction detection per EN 12453.
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 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.
Sample 7–15 days; standard container 12–20 days; custom first order 20–35 days (repeat 15–20). Operator/motor warranty is 3 years (servo motor 5 years), with free spare parts dispatched by DHL/FedEx within warranty (5–7 days).
