SCHWEISS HAS THE BEST HYDRAULIC PUMP AND DOOR ON THE MARKET
SCHWEISS DOORS HAS TAKEN EXTREME PRIDE IN INTRODUCING ITS NEW POWERFUL RED AND GREEN POWER PUMPS TO THE WORLD.
From the minute you press the control button on your handy remote control, you'll be amazed at how this door functions. It's everything you want it to be and more.
The unit has all the bells and whistles and comes with single or 3-phase electrical components. Easy to read psi pressure gauge, service filter and fluid temp gauges let you know that the door is always working properly and at full capacity. Everything is in one compact hydraulic pump unit powered by 2, 3, 5 or 10 horsepower motors to safely lift even the smallest or heaviest doors and seal them tightly.
Schweiss Safety Advantage allows the door to lock up and down or safely lower or raise your door in case of electrical failure. Each unit comes with a standard tractor hydraulic hookup, lower the door at any time, very handy for agricultural or industrial applications. Specially designed built-in manual override allows the operator to lower the door in case of a power outage. Battery backup features use a DC battery or drill to operate the door in either direction in case of an emergency, giving you a superior backup system for your door and peace of mind.
A WELL THOUGHT-OUT DESIGN... RED POWER PUMP... ONE OF A KIND
They're powerful... We're talking THE most Efficient Pumps with standard motors designed ready to lift any size door, at any time, all the time!
- They're Reliable... Safe, Carefully Designed Hydraulic Pumps that operate at 95% efficiency.

STEEL HORIZONTAL CROSS MEMBERS
SCHWEISS MANUFACTURES ALL-STEEL HYDRAULIC DOORFRAMES
A 2x3-14 gauge steel member welded all around is good for about 120 PSF of wind. The steel is shop-welded, meaning no field labor is required. Every member of a Schweiss all-steel door is securely welded in place. Welds are strong and permanent and never need to be adjusted or tightened.
WOOD HORIZONTAL CROSS MEMBERS
As you open the door, it flexes due to the variable wind load and its own weight. Tec screws or bolts in the end of a 2x4 are good for about 40 PSF of wind if the screws or bolts don't split the wood. Tec screws or bolts used to fasten horizontal wood cross members to the doorframe may work loose over time. Wood may shrink over time. The screws or bolts may shift in the the horizontal wooden cross member, eventually working their way loose.
BUILDS A BETTER DOOR!
Doors Include
Spherical Bearings

Doors are always Moving and Flexing
Spherical bearings reduce stress and wear on the cylinders, cylinders pins and clevises during operation "No one else in the industry offers this unique feature" only available on Schweiss Doors...
Hydraulic doors are large in size and just like an airplane wing, the doorframe flexes during operation. The hydraulic cylinders on each side of the doorway are connected to the doorframe and the building using spherical bearings. The spherical bearings accommodate the flexibility of the doorframe while at the same time allowing the cylinders to raise and lower the door without binding on the hydraulic cylinder pins and brackets. Spherical Bearings on both ends of the cylinder allow the cylinders to stay straight through the full range of motion.

HINGE DESIGN...
SMART
"OUR NEW WRAP-AROUND HINGE DESIGN SETS THE NEW STANDARD FOR HYDRAULIC DOORS"
Schweiss doorframes are designed with double or triple push tubes that are tied directly into the wrap-around hinges that connect both vertical push tubes directly to the header tube. The advantage of double or triple push tubes is that forces of hydraulic cylinders are evenly distributed to the doorframe and the wrap-around hinges.
"There have been hydraulic doors with hinge welds that failed, literally tearing off the doorframe and destroying the door." Schweiss says: "Our design team provided a durable wrap-around hinge with grease zerks that are accessible without removing the top rubber seal."

The Schweiss Hinge Design
The Schweiss hinge design is superior. The Schweiss design, with the extra long pin, not only reduces the stresses in all the components of the hinge, but it spreads the forces on a narrow section of the door. The Schweiss design is robust !

The hinge is the door... so it had better be STRONG!
The weight of the door and hydraulic forces exert loads on the hinge while the door is operating
The unique hinge design incorporates heavy hinge plates that wrap around each vertical push tube for added rigidity. Without this wrap-around design, the doorframe members can be overstressed and begin to tear apart from door weight and hydraulic forces over time. This won't happen with a Schweiss Door!
Hydraulic doors operate with one set of top hinges. These hinges need to be strong enough to support the door weight and the hydraulic cylinder forces when opening; unlike a bifold door that shares the load between the top hinges and the center hinges.
Hinge Surface Area
It's all about surface area. The more surface area you have in the hinge design, the lower the stresses will be in all the components. The Schweiss hinge design has 22" of surface area that will give you years of service no matter what size door.
