Do-it-yourself rules and recommendations for doorhan door installation

Russian manufacturers in the modern market of building materials gradually occupy high positions. Speaking about the production of garage doors and their components, we can mention the famous Russian company DoorHan. In the arsenal of this brand are collected all kinds of door systems ranging from barriers and checkpoints, ending with frame and modular buildings from the block-containers.

DoorHan personnel are constantly working to improve and optimize the manufactured products. It is noteworthy that their automation system is one of the best in Europe. And the garage door today has become the most popular and salable products on the Russian market.

Special features

The device of garage doors from DoorHan is not a technological or mechanical miracle. They have standard designs and a set of basic functions.

But still it is necessary to allocate a certain number of undeniable advantages of this product:

  • Comfort at all stages: from assembly and installation to full and long-term operation.
  • Safety and durability. The materials used in the manufacture of DoorHan garage doors are fireproof and durable.
  • The possibility of improving the existing models. That is, at any stage of operation, the buyer can purchase additional options or parts to make the use of the gate even more comfortable.
  • Resistance to any atmospheric phenomena and weather conditions.
  • Variability. The buyer can make his choice among a variety of colors, textures, and functional garage models.
  • Installation speed depends only on the qualifications and experience of the master or the buyer himself, if the gate is installed on its own. The maximum installation time is not more than 7-8 hours. For installation, there is no need to purchase expensive tools and equipment. The process takes place through the available at hand "ingredients."
  • Availability of quality certificates not only domestic, but also of the European sample.
  • Scope of application is not limited. only domestic use. DoorHan provides a large number of government projects with its products, making industrial models of gates.
  • Price policy. The cost of the gate of the Russian company at times below European.
  • Own production all components and automation.

Among the drawbacks, buyers often distinguish a more complex installation and connection scheme for automation. Car owners line up their comments about the electrical circuit, which has a somewhat non-standard look. And someone is simply fixated on the European quality and does not trust the Russian manufacturer, considering that domestic does not mean quality.

The advantages and disadvantages of DoorHan garage constructions are individual concepts. However, their installation instructions have such a clear and structured form that it will not be difficult for the person who first took up this task to understand the installation process of the garage doors.

Kinds

DoorHan produces a number of household garage structures with their own unique characteristics and functionality.

Four main types of these products:

  • sectional;
  • recoiling;
  • swing;
  • roll.

All types are divided into specific models, each of which is completely individual.

One of the most popular in Russia is the first option - automatic sectional doors for the garage.

They have two main categories depending on the method of lifting:

  • designs with tension springs;
  • with torsion mechanism.

The main difference between these two varieties is that the first ones raise and lower the door leaf using the spring-in-spring system. This method has long established itself as the most effective and safe. In the case of stretching or breaking one section of the spring, another becomes its place.. This prevents the door curtain from falling.

The second option is based on the installation of a mechanism with a rear torsion spring. it allows you to install garage sectional doors, even in rooms in which the lintel is no more than 150 mm. The torsion mechanism is designed for 25,000 raises and lows. It has a very sturdy construction that provides efficient and convenient durable operation.

In addition to the basic configuration, you can purchase mechanical means of opening the gate in case the electricity has been cut off or there are problems with the automatic system.

It should be noted that sectional garage doors are considered the most high-speed compared to sliding and lifting. Even roller shutter structures manufactured by the same manufacturer cannot boast of a high and safe lifting and lowering speed.

Material

The company's products DoorHan pleases with an abundance of materials from which the gate is made. Standard for the Russian manufacturing plant is the creation of structures made of sandwich panels. Materials such as profiled sheet, “steel sandwich” and wrought iron are typical for sliding and swing gates.

Dimensions

Unlike other modern manufacturers of garage constructions, DoorHan allows you to select the required door size according to the table available. So, the width of the structure ranges from 2 to 6 thousand mm. And the height is: minimum - 1,800 mm, maximum - 3,500 mm. However, the manufacturer reserves the right for the buyer to make changes to the standard dimensions, providing the opportunity to make garage doors for individual order.

Colors

The color scheme of designs for the garage depends mainly on the material from which they are made.There is a small variety of standard colors: white, gray, beige, green, red, and so on. As well as imitation of a wooden surface: golden oak and wenge.

There is an interesting addition to the standard textures of metal gates - decorating the canvas of garage doors with aluminum moldings. The sequence and location of these additional decors creates a kind of ornament or pattern.

So, having defined the look, color, size and texture of the future garage door, you can proceed to install the DoorHan construction with your own hands.

Necessary tools and accessories

Installing a garage door from the Russian manufacturer DoorHan is not a difficult task, but painstaking, which does not tolerate haste and inattention.

First of all, you should stock up with a set of tools needed to install a garage door:

  • drill with a set of various drills and nozzles;
  • Phillips screwdriver;
  • building level;
  • protective equipment for hands, eyes and head (gloves, goggles and hard hat);
  • hammer;
  • mounting knob;
  • set of wrenches;
  • knife;
  • pliers;
  • Sander.

It is also worth remembering that this set of tools is strictly advisory. It is necessary to look at the situation and add or remove some details.

And also be sure to pay attention to the full presence of the components of the gate.

Basic configuration of a standard sectional garage structure with a torsion mechanism:

  • 40 mm thick sandwich panels with heat-saving functions;
  • a set of guides and corner posts made of high strength galvanized steel;
  • two torsion bars - steel rods on which a cable is wound, holding the gate and allowing them to move up and down;
  • a box with additional accessories that are sure to come in handy during the installation of a DoorHan garage door;
  • a cable breakage protection device that blocks the shaft and prevents the gate from falling (not available in all trim levels);
  • control unit for automatic opening and closing of the web.

In a separate line I want to mention the unique instructions for installing the gate. It is so simple and understandable that even the person who first took up this business can cope with the process.

Of course, the amount of time spent on installation of sectional doors directly depends on the experience of the master.

How to set your own hands?

Installing a DoorHan gate is not a hazard or a super-complex task. The simplest thing is to follow the step-by-step installation instructions, which is a clear guide for assembling gates with pictures. The manufacturer tenderly made sure that any motorist could assemble his products independently.

Here are a few highlights that you need to pay attention to when assembling the DoorHan garage structure:

  • Panel preparation. The basic rule is to build from the bottom up. The bottom section should fit snugly to the floor, have a strictly horizontal position, and both ends of the web should go equally behind the opening. If the floor at the point of contact with the section of the garage construction is uneven, then it is necessary to put a flat metal plate on it. To level a cloth by means of construction level.
  • Installation of vertical guides. There are two options for assembly: standard (in the opening) and non-standard (on the floor). The assembly also starts at the bottom.Vertical guides are mounted on the base of the lower section of the door, with a gap of 25-30 mm from the extreme edge of the canvas to the notch of the guide. The next step will be to mount the corner posts, from which horizontal profiles will later flow.
  • To properly install the torsion mechanism, you need to start with the installation of end support brackets. The torsion bar is already mounted in them. Bearing and spring are put on the shaft. The drum is mounted on the shaft, after having made holes in it for the cable. The tails of the cables bend and form loops that hide in a kind of “pocket” on the bracket. The last step is to adjust the tension of the cables. You can try to tension the cable yourself, thereby checking the correctness of the installation of the torsion mechanism. After the completion of the assembly activities, the DoorHan garage doors should be opened and closed. Properly installed design will move smoothly, without jerks and stops.
  • Automation setting. First of all, you will have to choose the type of drive to open and close DoorHan garage doors: ceiling or free. The first is also called electromechanical drive chain type.Adjusting and installing this component yourself is also not a problem.

The manufacturer advises to pay attention to the following nuances:

  1. Ensure the balance and proper functioning of the gate;
  2. Make sure that there are no trapping of foreign objects between the moving and stationary parts of the electric drive;
  3. It is prohibited to use the drive in a faulty condition;
  4. Ensure that there are no foreign objects in the drive area;
  5. Travel and passage under the gate is allowed only if the structure is stopped and the drive is disconnected;
  6. Add-ons and accessories allowed for use are only available from DoorHan.

The manufacturer reports that it is also possible to use native remote controls with the drives. It is surprising that this device can control several functions simultaneously. For example, the correct programming of the key fob can provide you with uninterrupted remote control of electric locks, DoorHan garage door electric drives, as well as indoor lighting. It is very convenient to program the console to open and close several automatic ones at once.constructions DoorHan: sectional doors, roll-up shutters, barriers, sliding gates.

The brand also produces A special addition is a GSM module that receives the signal of a mobile phone and sends it to the electric drive.. It is enough to set up a special application on your gadget. Thus, your smartphone will become your personal remote control. In this application, you can also register all the nuances: from coding to clarify the state of the gate.

Any DoorHan keyfobs and any smartphones can be programmed.
