At GDI, we fuse cutting-edge door-and-gate automation with proven green technologies—so your facility not only runs reliably but earns LEED® & BOMA BEST® credits without compromise.
Automated doors and gates are the unseen workhorses in every facility—yet they can account for up to 8% of HVAC load losses when left unmanaged. By integrating energy-recapture, advanced monitoring, and ultra-durable components, GDI systems slash waste, extend asset life, and directly support green building certifications.
During door closing, our DC motor feeds kinetic energy back to the SmartCharging™ system—enabling 100–200 backup cycles on reserve power and reducing peak grid draw by up to 15%.
GDI’s Algorithm™ Drive & Compact GerMotor™ deliver over 2 million cycles (tested per UL 325 protocols), cutting replacement waste and boosting MR credits under LEED®.
Electronic torque monitoring (±0.5 Nm accuracy) stops movement in milliseconds—without mechanical adjustments—improving safety and lowering unplanned stops by 65%.
Built-in cycle-optimization algorithms prevent unnecessary opens/closes. Wi-Fi & Ethernet diagnostics track energy use, door-open time, and alert on misalignments or spring fatigue.
Stainless-steel and marine-grade aluminum gearboxes, sealed to IP69K, sustain daily washdown. Cold-rated down to –40 °C, they eliminate corrosion-related failures and extend service intervals.
| Metric | Value | Standard / Test |

After retrofitting 30 high-bay doors with GDI’s HAML-9000 units, the facility saw:
“GDI’s technical depth won our sustainability goals and our engineers’ approval—performance and green metrics in one solution.”
