## Key technical facts

- Automatic door types need a minimum of 2 inches (50mm) of headroom between the ceiling and the top of the door at its highest point, within 10ft 6in (3.2m) of the frame.
- Pivot action canopy doors cannot be automated as they are. They need converting to horizontal tracks first.
- Canopy doors with vertical tracks can be automated using a supplementary pantograph arm kit.
- Side hinged timber doors need a supplementary hinge kit to be automated, from £80 plus VAT.
- To quote accurately we need the opening size: wood to wood width and ground to wood height.
