THE CLEVER 'LATCH STRAP' DESIGN

Called the 'Latch Strap', a newly designed automatic latching system designed by Schweiss engineers replaces steel cables still being used by some door companies.

The clever 'Latch Strap' design makes the patented Schweiss Lift Strap system doubly functional to both lift Schweiss bifold doors and also automatically tightly latch the doors.

Very Nice Feature!

The Easy Way!

Lets you open/ stop/ close your Bi-Fold Door from any vehicle. Automatically
unlatches the door so it can be opened or closed with the hand held remote.
Two hand held remote controls and antennas are included with each door.

In October 1996 I installed a 50ft Schweiss Bi-Fold Door to my 80ft by 80ft hangar for my newspaper offices, AgAir Update and Universal Helicopter. About a year later, I added the remote open / close feature. To this day I have never had an open / close failure and never had any problems of any kind. When I was building my hangar I compared the price of sliding doors with the Bi-Fold. It was only a few dollars more, of which I have never regretted spent. It is a real luxury to press my remote door especially if it is raining. I can't imagine a better built hangar door. - Bill Lavender (Publish of AgAir Updated and Universal Helicopter)
