Automation solutions for sectional garage doors
The GfA Elektromaten automatic operating units will work in all kinds of conditions. From warehouse spaces and factory halls, through rooms with high humidity, service-providing and commercial spaces, to agricultural facilities, including those for animal husbandry. GfA actuators are state-of-the-art devices that provide smooth operation, and the FU series will perform well in areas where heavy duty use is required.
GfA Elektromaten SE automation solutions
GfA SE series actuators are solutions designed for the automation of balanced industrial sectional doors. The actuator is fitted directly onto the door shaft.
SE actuator characteristics:
- compact design,
- single- or three-phase electric motor,
- DES electronic limit switches,
- emergency opening chain hoist,
- integrated frequency inverter – available with the FU actuator

GfA Elektromaten SW automation solutions
GfA SW series actuators are special solutions designed for the automation of balanced industrial sectional doors. The actuator is mounted on a track equipped with a chain, and motion transmission takes place with the use of a carriage.
SW actuator characteristics:
- compact design,
- single-phase electric motor,
- gearbox integrated with the motor,
- integrated frequency inverter,
- aluminium track with a chain,
- carriage with quick disengagement,
- DES electronic limit switches

GfA Elektromaten central control units
The TS series central control units are devices that allow you to configure the automation devices – from the simplest Totmann version, through the Automatik version, to a set that can be connected to virtually any smart building system.
Any device can be connected to the TS central control unit:
- safety devices (safety edge, photocells, safety light curtain, wicket door opening sensor, loose cable sensor),
- control devices (control pendants, wall buttons),
- access control devices (code locks, proximity readers, radio receivers, induction loop detectors),- signalling devices (LED signal lights, red-green LED signal light).
The TS981 central control unit meets the highest requirements, enabling traffic control and connection to the smoke removal and ventilation systems of the building (scenario-based operation).
You can also connect the Ri-Co or Ri-Co PRO controllers to the TS series central control units and control the door from an app installed on your phone. Apart from control functions, the Ri-Co PRO device reports the position (status) of the door.

GfA Elektromaten central control units
The comfort of use of the GfA central control unit is evident right from the installation stage, thanks to easy connection and intuitive programming.

SOMMER automatic operating units
Base+ and tiga+ devices are designed for balanced industrial sectional doors. They are perfect solutions for indoor car parks.
The automation device sets include a carriage and a track equipped with a fixed chain. The control unit can be fitted to a wall (tiga+) or at the end of the track (base+). In the latter case, no side clearance is required for installation.
Drive unit characteristics
- compact design and smooth operation;
- soft START – STOP;
- 24 [V] motor integrated with the carriage;
- overcurrent obstacle detection – an overload protection system stops and reverses the door leaf when the bottom edge contacts an obstacle;
- built-in LED warning light,
- photocells – ensure optimum safety whenever an obstacle appears between the photocells;
- auto selection of operating parameters;
- central control unit with an integrated Sommer radio receiver;
- power supply: 1 x 230 [V];
- quick emergency disengagement in case of power outage;
- intended for indoor car parks with up to 30 parking spaces;
- signal lights in red/green for traffic control (function available with tiga+);
- can be connected with the smoke extraction system and ventilation system (function available with tiga+)
