Driveline
OVERVIEW
The driveline is an important part of the lift system. As the lift motor operates, it turns the driveline, wrapping the lift cables and opening (or closing) the door. Our driveline offers low maintenance reliability, with fewer moving parts and a simplified design. Its unique design also prevents our lift cables from overlapping, which is the primary cause of shortened cable life.
The size of the driveline is determined by the size of your door, gear ratio, and the required opening speed. A series of industrial grade pillow block bearings join the driveline to the lower internal truss.

FAQ
What sort of maintenance does the driveline need?
We have designed our driveline for easy maintenance. Driveline bushings and pillow block bearings should be periodically inspected for wear. Driveline bushings may occasionally need greasing. Please refer to the owners manual for further information.
Do the cables wrap up on drums?
No, our cables wrap directly onto the driveline. Unlike drums, which cause cables to wrap on themselves, our driveline prevents cables from ever overlapping. This increases the life span of our cables and prevents early cable failure.
