Automatic Garage Door – The VivoPort Up-And-Over

An essential difference to conventional, track led operators: With VivoPort® the operator is an integrated and technically coordinated component of the garage door. For the authorized dealer this means: no installation problems and considerably more reasonable offers as a result of the factory-sided assembly of the operator system. The installation is independent of the state of the headroom and ceiling as well as of possible support constructions under the ceiling. Also, special hanging-up for higher ceilings are no longer required.

In short: No matter which roof- or ceiling-construction the garage has: if the garage door fits, so does the operator.

The renovation potential and the automation trend clearly show one thing: This new development matches the market demands. The need for renovation is enormous: Millions of old up-and-over doors wait to be replaced. And the renovation rate with private garage doors will rise considerably within the next years according to the federal association of gates, doors, frames (TTZ). At the same time, the automation surge permanently grows: Consumers simply want more safety and comfort at home - at the touch of a button.

VivoPort® with integrated operator is so economical that a retrofitting is practically not worthwhile any more. For garage owners it often doesn't make sense to retrofit an old garage door with a new operator which presumably only persists for a few more years (and later exchange the garage door and convert the operator in turn). The consumer gets a garage door system with integrated operator for only a little bit more money - at a reasonable complete price which stands up to every comparison.

The garage door systems being already assembled with the operator are installed by dealers within shortest time. Everything is fully cabled ready to plug in. And even if there is no electricity in the garage, this is no more reason to do without automatic system comfort: For this Novoferm offers the practical accumulator pack. A sensible "extra" which is e.g. ideal at garage courts without power supply.

All in all: VivoPort® is in its way a unique, economic up-and-over garage door system with integrated operator. In series it has everything an automatic garage door needs. So simple and yet so technically innovative.

This consistent further development of the concept of automatic garage door systems for the private sector started by Novoferm with NovoPort® is available as of now. Another successful step within the close cooperation between Novoferm and the specialized trade: With VivoPort® the dealers can position themselves towards the final consumer as a system supplier - a sales argument getting more and more important.
