Strongdor Leads the Way with Automatic Door Innovation

RADC Launch

At Strongdor, we’re proud to offer our first steel door available with a fire-rated automatic door operator as part of our expanding product lineup. Identifying a clear gap in the market for a strong, fully integrated automatic steel door solution, our team took the initiative. We partnered with Record, a globally recognised leader in automatic door technology. This collaboration led to the development of our first-ever automatic steel door, powered by the cutting-edge Record DFA 127 operator.

 

A Partnership with Record

"We were absolutely thrilled to partner with Strongdor on this exciting new launch," said Bobby Parkinson from Record. "From the very beginning, it was clear that Strongdor brought not only innovation but a genuine passion for raising the bar in the industry. Their commitment to quality, compliance, and forward-thinking design made them an ideal partner. We are delighted our DFA 127 is now available within their steel door range."

 

Seamless Integration

"The DFA 127 is a versatile, high-performance drive system designed to automate swing doors and Strongdor has engineered our door-sets to work seamlessly with this hardware, ensuring each door arrives fully pre-prepped and installation-ready."

 

Ideal for Hands-Free Access

This new door set is ideal for environments where hands-free access is critical, particularly in healthcare settings where hygiene and ease of movement are essential. It’s also an excellent choice for commercial buildings, care homes, educational facilities, and anywhere accessibility is a priority.

 

Fire-Rated and Certified

Understanding the importance of safety and compliance, Strongdor has gone a step further by making this automatic system available on our fire-rated door range. Through rigorous fire testing, we can now offer the DFA 127 operator as part of a certified fire door range, ensuring safety is never compromised.

 

Smarter, Safer, More Adaptable

With this launch, we have expanded our specification capabilities more than ever before, offering architects, contractors, and specifiers a smarter, safer, and more adaptable solution for all building needs. With seamless automation, fire safety certification, and trusted durability, this new system is designed to meet the highest standards in performance and compliance.
