Great features that come standard on Diamond Doors.
High Strength Frame
Diamond Doors are manufactured from high strength tubular steel. Engineered and designed with a triple internal truss the Diamond Door system is one of the strongest in the industry. Designed to minimize weight while maximizing strength, the engineered design minimizes the door weight and loads on your building. Each door is carefully crafted and assembled by a CWB certified welder. Our doors come standard with a quality urethane finish. Each door is painted charcoal grey in our state of the art paint facility. This finish is extremely durable and incredibly weather resistant, so you can be sure your bifold cable door is built to last.
Rollers
Located on the bottom corners of the door, the rollers run vertically on the door track as the door opens and closes. Diamond
Doors offers two roller styles. The roller type is based on the door size and roller loads.
Cantilever Roller
The new cantilever roller design will replace the existing simple supported design on most doors less than 60′ wide. Some featues of this roller includes:
- Easier Install: No need to trim sheeting or insulation around roller.
- Operation Reliability: Roller wear cap provides a low friction surface, so even with minor building shift or track misalignment, the door will still open and close.
- Improved Seal: The cantilevered design allows the bottom rubber seal to extend further into the column, providing a better bottom seal.
Inset Roller
This roller design is used on doors larger than 60′ wide and with higher roller loads. The roller is inset to better transfer the loads into the door frame.
Driveline
This is dependent on the size of door, gear ratio, and the required lifting speed you would prefer. The driveline is coupled to the lower internal wind truss by a series of industrial grade pillow block bearings and Teflon bushings. This system provides a low maintenance, smooth operating lifting motion.
Standard Lift Cables
Diamond Doors unique lift cable driveline 2 design provides an offset during lift, preventing the cable from ever “overlapping” or coming in contact with itself (the primary reason for shortened cable life). These highly specialized cables utilize an extremely fine weave and fiber core for excellent flexibility and exceptional lifespan. Using more cables translates to less loading per cable, helping to further extend its lifespan. It’s why Diamond Doors uses a minimum of a 10x cable safety factor. Also, the numerous lift points help to better distribute loads more evenly on the door (and ultimately on the building).
Genesys Electrical Box
The Diamond Diamond Genesys CSA approved electrical box Genesys CSA approved electrical box is the first ever UL325/CSA 22.2 certified bi-fold door operator on the market. Our innovative Genesys circuit board features plug-n-play installation on future upgrades, on-board diagnostics, built in emergency override controls, and more. This means our doors require no onsite electrical connections in the door frame and a watertight junction box for control wire connections. We supply all power and control wires and they are factory installed to the door frame so you can get your door up and running quickly and efficiently.
Electric Lift Motor
Every Diamond Door comes standard with an electric lifting motor. This Electric motor is coupled to the industrial grade gearbox creating the most reliable electric lifting system. Every electric motor is sized accordingly to the weight it’s lifting and the opener speed required. These electric motors are available in single phase 230V, 3 phase 208V, 460V and 600V. All electric motors are coupled to an electric brake to ensure safety. The brake is equipped with a lever to manually disengage the brake for manual operation.
Single Lever Lock
The single lever locking system simultaneously locks both sides of the door with a simple rotation of the locking handle. This locking handle can be positioned on either side of door for quick and easy access. The locking system is designed to pull the door tight to the building to secure it and seal it from the outside environment.
Top/Bottom Weather Seals
The bottom rubber seal is fastened to the bottom of the door by an aluminum track sealing the space between the lower door frame and your finished floor. The rubber seal is designed with ribs to prevent the seal from freezing to the ground. These seals are available in different sizes to accommodate any fluctuation in your finished floor elevation or deflection of the building.
