Commercial onlyCommercial only, and built like it.
Manaras make nothing for houses. Every unit here is a commercial jackshaft, trolley or slider built for a door that runs all day, with the washdown and hazardous-location versions most brands do not offer.
Warehouses, storefronts, gated communities and property portfolios. 24 to choose from.
Door size, whether the garage is attached, and how many times a day it runs. That is all it takes to spec it properly.

7 modelsItalian gear, and the widest range of the four.
16 modelsBuilt for heat, and the solar option actually works here.
5 modelsItalian access control, from a driveway to a whole site.
12 modelsNo, and that is the point of the brand. Everything they build is commercial or industrial, so nothing in the range is a domestic unit sold on duty it cannot sustain.
It mounts on the wall beside the door shaft and turns the shaft directly, rather than pulling the door along a ceiling rail. It is how nearly every commercial rolling door is driven, and it leaves the ceiling clear.
The waterproof housing. If you run a food plant, a marine yard or anywhere that gets hosed down, a standard operator will corrode. Manaras is one of the few brands with a properly sealed version off the shelf.
Speed. A DH, DS, DT or Allegro drives a high speed door that opens in a couple of seconds, which is what cold storage, clean rooms and busy traffic openings need to hold temperature and keep vehicles moving.
Usually. We check the shaft, the headroom, the side room and the door balance first, because an operator fitted to a binding curtain burns out whatever the brand.
We service every brand on this page, not only the ones we sell. Residential and commercial, same-day where we can.
