As America’s premier builder of carriage doors, we’ve partnered with a leading European Automation Manufacturer and created the perfect partnership. An automatic door opener designed for swinging carriage (garage) doors. Precision engineering makes the Franklin smooth, quiet, and reliable. The motor mounts above the opening, no ceiling track = open space floor to ceiling. Which leaves space for vehicle lifts, lighting, living space, and more possibilities. Customize with the optional accessories.
