Note: Total door weight, and not the square footage, is the critical factor in selecting the proper operator.
Square footage measurements are based on "square doors." (Example=16' x 16')
NOTE: Doors that require special windloading and wide doors, normally require increased strutting (reinforcement). Strutting doors can significantly increase door
weight beyond weight shown. Consult Customer Service for the impact of wind load andstrutting on square foot limits.
NOTE: "PU-FIP" stands for "polyurethane, foamed-in-place." If no notation is present, insulation is "polystyrene, layed-iin-place."
