We've Met with Emergency Response Professionals to Discuss Emergency Vehicle Access Needs.
In response to those needs, we’ve created solutions specifically for you.

After two major door repairs, The Albemarle Fire Department of Albemarle, North Carolina recently had the opportunity to make much needed safety upgrades to their main firehouse door systems. Chief Shawn Oke was thrilled with the results:
Our LiftMaster door enhancements are providing a safer workplace for our firefighters, have eliminated costly door repairs and are allowing our units to respond to emergencies faster.

Why Automate Your Commercial Doors?
- Assists with quick departure when responding to an emergency call by eliminating the need to manually open and close doors. Use of Timer-to-Close and MyQ verify your station doors close automatically.
- Assures commercial doors cannot be manually opened from the outside by someone trying to gain access to commit theft.
- Increases the life expectancy of the door and reduces service costs associated with ensuring proper operation of commercial doors. Commercial door operators open and close in a controlled manner eliminating the potential for doors to raise too quickly or slam when being closed.
- Reduces the opportunity for a soft tissue injury to occur when opening or closing a commercial door manually, preventing workplace injury claims, loss of time and potential increased insurance premiums.
