The new BiSecur, hand held transmitters for opening automatic doors and gates, feature bi-directional FM radio signals that use the same 128 bit encryption employed by banks for online banking security. Not only does this system make the transmitters more secure but also means that the signal is more reliable and gives extended operating distances.

Another benefit of the new BiSecur system, is that it includes a remote status query. A simple push of a button will tell you whether an out of sight door is open or closed. The multicolour LED light shows red if the door is open and green if closed. The door can be closed even when out of sight, the LED displaying a blue light until the door is closed and the light turns to green. In this circumstance it is recommended that an additional photocell is installed for added safety.

As well as improving the technology, the appearance of the new transmitters has been taken to new levels, gaining a prestigious Red Dot design award. Available in a black or white high gloss finish that replicates piano lacquer, the new transmitters have an elegant design that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. As an added convenience the new, full size handsets use AAA batteries and can be supplied with a holding station. The new BiSecur radio system is now standard on SupraMatic, ProMatic, LineaMatic and RotaMatic operators, which are supplied with the new transmitters. These new handsets are backwards compatible so can be used with all Hörmann automatic operators produced since 2005. This means for instance, that a new transmitter can control both a new gate operator and an existing garage door operator.

Finding it hard to roll up your garage doors or cant you open your horizontal garage gates smoothly and automatically? Then you’d better check out whether your garage is still working properly. If your door snaps and gets stuck through its rolling, one of the possible things that could have caused it is the spring’s efficiency. The solution is to get a garage door spring replacement.

A garage door spring replacement could help you get better door responsiveness. The springs have their own capacities, lift, and life cycles and these are helpful determinants in keeping track of your garage door springs. If your springs have reached their end, meaning they have already surpassed the number of times that they could lift and close your garage door, and then it would probably cause less efficiency when it comes to functioning.

You may of course do some run through especially if you have some knowledge in maintaining garage doors but if you are not skilled enough and backed up with the principles of the spring systems used on garage doors, then it is recommended that you do not try to replace nor fix the springs yourself. Many incidences have been reported regarding accidents due to repairs done by unskilled workers. There are even reported deaths, making garage door spring replacement to be highly recommended for professional personnel in order to avoid such mishaps.

You should secure these repairs or even replacements if needed, so that you could still have that assurance of security. Without a good set of springs for your garage doors, you could loose your precious things due to robbery and you would not like that right? You should invest in sturdy and high quality metal springs that last a lot longer than those cheaper springs that tend to break easily.

You may try to look at your local directory for service providers near you and ask for their assistance with regards to your garage door spring replacement concerns.
