When determining which model door operator is best
suited for your project, it is also helpful to consider:
The expected design life of the project.
Is it a public school for which the design will remain fairly
constant over many decades and, therefore, requires a
heavy-duty opener?
Or is it a fast food restaurant that updates its décor every
few years, in which case, doors are replaced frequently to
support design changes .
