Ron Hay joins
Chamberlain as
Marketing Manager
THE CHAMBERLAIN GROUP has
recently appointed Ron Hay as Mar-
keting Manager for Australia & New
Zealand. Ron is well know to Cham-
berlain and the industry having been
in the garage door and opener busi-
ness for 11 years.
Ron is based at Lane Cove NSW
and reports directly to the Managing
Director, Jim Mole.
“After the successful acquisition
of the Grifco and Merlin businesses in
2006 we identied the need for this
critical appointment, but chose to combine the Sales and Marketing functions
until a sufcient critical mass justied the addition of another senior position
to the local management team. The addition of such a senior marketing role
now is not just in line with the ongoing growth aspirations of Chamberlain
ANZ but it emphasises our commitment to the market”, said Jim Mole.
Ron has overall responsibility for all Chamberlain’s marketing activities—
residential and industrial — across Australia and New Zealand.
CHAMBERLAIN ANZ is
committed to achieving
‘zero harm’, as everyone
has the right to be safe at
work and to return home
to their family and friends
unharmed.
Since joining Cham-
berlain ANZ, Celia has
developed a structured
plan to introduce systems
and a culture for a safe
workplace, with the primary focus this
year on ensuring compliance among
our employees.
To date, our product manuals have
been upgraded to ensure that all safety
warnings have been included, and
installers should not
only take note of these
warnings but pass the
manual to their cus-
tomer for reference.
In the coming year,
there will be a greater
focus and support for
contractors, dealers, in-
stallers and customers
in order
t o
assist them in
the safe handling
and use of our
products.
Stay safe.
“My goal at Chamberlain
is that no harm comes to
anyone”
Celia Manins joined the Chamberlain
team in July 2008 as Occupational Health
& Safety Manager.
Colour comes to
Grifco Maestro
AN ELEGANT maroon colour has replaced the traditional black on the en-
closures for Grifco’s Limit Switch and Main Control Boards. The new colour doesn’t
just brighten up the product, it also enables fast identication from the factory oor.
The rst product with the new look was the recently launched Mk3 Main Control
Board version.
Closing down safely
ALL OF Grifco’s Maestro electronic openers have been upgraded to accept a safety feature that
prevents a door from being closed by remote control should an obstruction be in the way.
Complying with the latest IEC standards, the Maestro electronic openers require an obstruction
detection device such as a ‘photo beam’ or a ‘safety airwave edge’ to be tted to them in order to
allow them to be closed by remote control.
Grifco’s Mk3 boards will accept the C-77A IR
Beams, the PB008 reective IR Beams or the PB060
send/receive IR Beams.
Clutching for
safety
A CLUTCH is now available on the majority of the
Maestro mechanical and electronic opener range.
is feature not only raises the level of personal
safety, but can also prevent extremely costly dam-
age to the door or the property surrounding the
door. e doors that will benet the most from the
safety feature of a clutch are the ones that are more
likely to encounter an obstruction, such as: busy
dock doors, bi-folds and high cycle doors in general.
e Clutch Module is fac-
tory-ed between the elec-
tric motor and the gearbox.
Once the opener is installed,
the clutch can be adjusted to
the torque seing required.
