Part FAQ

Frequently asked questions about this part

  • Minimum clearance between open door and roof is 45 mm — if not available, contact the supplier for a custom rail. Lengthwise, keep 700 mm clear behind the aluminium rail so the motor block can be removed at annual service. Minimum rail length needed: door height + 92 cm.

  • The DL-6 is designed as a universal retrofit (brochure: 'fits almost any roller door'). Three mandatory prerequisites: minimum 45 mm clearance between top panel and roof, balanced opening/closing force ≤ 35 kg, top panel rigid enough not to flex at end-of-travel. Plastic or wooden doors usually need top-panel reinforcement. For insulated boxes, plan a roof reinforcement before mounting the rail.

Field essentials

Two essentials to know before anything else

Critical procedures to stay operational — emergency release and installer qualification.

  • External release procedure: (1) insert the DoorLIFT key into the lock cylinder at the centre of the intermediate or top panel, outside face; (2) turn the key 90° clockwise and firmly pull the lock and cable out of the cylinder — the system disengages; (3) reinsert the cable and cylinder into the door lock housing, then operate the door by hand. On the AluLIFT, an internal release is available: pull the red sleeve marked 'EMERGENCY DOOR RELEASE' to disengage the motor lever from inside the box.

  • VanDOOR does not perform installation itself. AluLIFT integration must be carried out exclusively by qualified, trained bodybuilders or integrators, in accordance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and best practice. The integrator guarantees regulatory compliance of the final assembly, verifies correct operation, commissions the system, and supplies the end user with the manual and CE Declaration of Conformity for the integrated equipment.
