For over two decades, GDI has been redefining reliability in commercial garage door and gate operator systems across North America, combining precision engineering with rugged performance that stands the test of time.
Reliability you never have to question.
We build operator systems people can trust with safety and uptime. Our purpose is simple: make every cycle predictable, every motion controlled, and every site more resilient.
How we deliver that reliability:
Materials, gearing, and electronics selected for longevity — verified through real‑world stress testing.
Intelligent profiles and obstruction sensing for smooth, consistent operation and faster diagnostics.
Clear documentation and responsive technical support to minimize downtime.
Because in the real world, having a broken garage door isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s a risk. That’s why we create garage door opener systems that are strong, smart, and built to last.
We believe the best Overhead Door systems are the ones you never have to think about. At GDI, performance should feel seamless. Reliability should be built in, not bolted on. And intelligence should live within every motion, not buried behind menus or flashy lights.
Garage Doors Openers shouldn’t just open, they should move with precision, purpose, and peace of mind.
That’s why we built GDI Garage Door Operators from the ground up — to eliminate failure-prone systems and replace them with smarter, stronger solutions for car washes, warehouses, government facilities, and custom Industrial Farm applications.
We don’t just make garage door operators. We make the ones professionals trust most.
Engineering dependability, empowering performance.
We design and build operator systems that deliver uncompromising strength, safety, and precision. Every GDI product embodies decades of applied research — from Algorithm™ Drive motor control and Compact GearMotor™ design to NetworkPower™ communication and SmartCharging™ battery technology.
Through close collaboration with technicians, installers, and facility engineers, we craft solutions that thrive in the harshest environments — ensuring your doors and gates perform flawlessly, cycle after cycle, year after year.
Leading the evolution of intelligent access.
We envision a future where every industrial and commercial facility operates with real-time insight, adaptive efficiency, and connected intelligence. GDI aims to set the global benchmark for smart, sustainable automation through innovation, durability, and trust.
Six pillars of innovation — engineered for performance, proven in the field.
Precision torque control algorithms provide unmatched motion accuracy and motor efficiency — compact power, controlled strength.
Lightweight, high-torque gearmotors with servo-grade positioning for faster installation and maximum power density in tight spaces.
Integrated Wi-Fi/Ethernet connectivity for real-time monitoring, diagnostics, and remote management from any device.
Advanced current-based electronic detection instantly responds to jams or impacts — no mechanical tuning required.
SmartCharging™ ensures 50–200 uninterrupted cycles during power loss, maintaining productivity in any condition.
Customizable acceleration and deceleration profiles deliver smooth, quiet, repeatable door movement.
Built to endure. Tested to millions of cycles.
From sub-zero freezers to high-humidity washdowns, GDI operators power through the world’s toughest environments. One of our long-term customers recently surpassed six million cycles without a single unscheduled service — proof of our commitment to lasting engineering excellence.
What makes the difference? Marine-grade aluminum housings, nitrided steel shafts, double planetary gearing, and North American lubricants formulated for endurance.
Precision-engineered operators for every commercial and industrial application.
Ultra high-cycle operator engineered for 10,000+ cycles per day. Ideal for cold storage, high-speed roll-ups, and vertical lift doors — pairing planetary gearing with smart controls for industry-leading endurance.
The most adaptable system in our lineup for rolling steel, sectional, or fabric doors. A modular jackshaft/trolley hybrid built for versatility and weather-resistant durability.
Compact, sealed direct-drive GearMotor™ — made for car washes, showrooms, and dusty environments. High-cycle performance meets washdown-grade protection.
Precision access control engineered for reliability and safety.
Whether you’re upgrading existing systems or designing a new facility, our engineers are ready to specify the right solution for your environment.
