How swing gates work
THE SWING GATE PRINCIPLE
THE SWING GATE PRINCIPLE
Insulated DuoPort® side hinged doors consist of two doors that open “barn door” style rather than vertically. These doors are available as a 50/50 split with both door leaves of equal size or with an ofset configuration. There’s also the choice to have the doors open inwards or outwards. Our Insulated DuoPort® leaf doors offer you the possibility to use your garage as a utility room, for leisure time or hobbies. You can choose whether to open both doors or just the active door.
SPACE REQUIREMENT IN FRONT OF AND IN THE GARAGE
SPACE REQUIREMENT IN FRONT OF AND IN THE GARAGE
Side Hinged doors are particularly suitable for properties that offer sufficient space in front of the garage.
If the door leaf opens outwards, there must be sufficient room to manoeuvre.
Conversely, if the door leaf opens inwards, the garage interior must be kept clear within the movement radius of the leaf.
HIGH FLEXIBILITY DURING OPENING
HIGH FLEXIBILITY DURING OPENING
You can choose to open both leaves or just the active leaf.
If, for example, you only want to get the lawn mower or bicycle out of the garage, you can only open one door leaf.
MANUALLY OPERATED
MANUALLY OPERATED (WITHOUT DRIVE)
Due to their special construction and double-leaf design, swing garage doors can only be operated manually.
You have the choice of moving only the active leaf or both leaves.

INSULATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
INSULATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
HIGH INSULATION
The hinged garage doors are insulated and have a 45 mm thick PUR rigid foam core for high thermal insulation.
They therefore not only offer a variable and convenient entrance, but also protect the garage from temperature fluctuations.
THERMALLY SEPARATED PROFILES
No chance for thermal bridges!
This is ensured by slim profiles that are available in many colours and require virtually no maintenance.
THERMALLY SEPARATED BOTTOM RAIL
It reduces the risk of condensation and on-site moisture damage.
At the same time, it increases the thermal insulation of your garage.
SECURITY AND BURGLAR RESISTANCE
3-WAY LOCKING WITH HINGE LOCK
Novoferm swing garage doors can be fitted with a burglar-resistant triple locking system with hinge protection. This provides additional security and ensures that the door cannot be levered out or pushed away.
Precise workmanship - reliable function
Door leaf:
- Inside:
Polyester-based base coat, grey-white similar to RAL 9002 - Outside standard:
Traffic white similar to RAL 9016 (primed) - Outside:
Super-Color or RAL of your choice at an extra charge (final coating)
GAS PRESSURE DAMPER FOR END POSITION LOCKING
The optional gas pressure damper ensures that the swing garage door closes gently and reliably, as well as securing it in the end positions.
The overhead door closer with latching action is a good alternative to securing the door in the end position.
EDGE BOLT FOR LOCKING THE PASSIVE LEAF
The edge bolt is used to lock the passive leaf (top and bottom).
The security-relevant edge bolt can optionally be fitted at the top and/or bottom.
It closes with its locking bolt in a striking plate, which is embedded in the top of the door frame or in the floor.
Stable 3D belts
Sturdy 3D hinges for easy adjustment, also available in gate colour at extra cost
