Marley\u2019s chains are described as \u201clong, and wound about him like a tail; it was made of\u2026cash boxes, keys, padlocks, ledgers, deeds and heavy purses wrought in steel\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-12112\" src=\"https:\/\/www.centsys.co.za\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/34292484_m-1024x608.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"551\" height=\"327\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Not exactly traditional festive attire. Most of us just put on a paper hat or perhaps some fake reindeer antlers, but to each his own.<\/p>\n<p>Much like Marley\u2019s ghost, the movement of many older types of garage door motors is accompanied by the kind of sanity-shattering cacophony that would not seem out of place in one of those old haunted house movies.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, thanks to some clever engineering and a deep respect for the sanctity of silence, we\u2019ve created a garage door automation solution that\u2019s as whisper-quiet as it\u2019s easy to install and set up.<\/p>\n<p>Here are five reasons to install the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.centsys.co.za\/sdo4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SDO4<\/a> garage door operator for tip-up and sectional doors:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ease of installation, adjustment and setup<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ready. Set. Go! The drive unit slides into the rail and the control box slots into position at the back; it\u2019s as simple as that. Additionally, the built-in LED display and colour-coded buttons together make it a delight to configure settings and toggling between the operator\u2019s many unique features couldn\u2019t be easier.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Battery-driven \u2013 ALWAYS on<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You need to be somewhere in a hurry. The power goes out. You\u2019re going nowhere. Unless you have the\u00a0<strong>SDO4<\/strong>, that is. The\u00a0<strong>SDO4\u00a0<\/strong>switches seamlessly between mains and battery power in the event of a power outage, so it\u2019s always on. You can even use solar power to charge the system.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JxH4xUxcFsw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<strong>Whisper-quiet operation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Does using your garage door sound like a castle lowering its drawbridge? Unlike the garage door motors of yesteryear, the<strong>\u00a0SDO4<\/strong>\u2018s\u00a0<strong>super quiet and powerful<\/strong>\u00a024V DC motor is connected directly to the garage door and travels with it as it opens or closes. No more clanking chains results in a smoother and quieter ride.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KwPDvNVe2oM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<strong>An SDO to suit your door<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<strong>SDO4\u00a0<\/strong>comes in two different models, making it suitable for virtually any size domestic garage door. Choose the T10 for smaller doors up to 12 square metres, or automate your bigger door with the powerful T12 model.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Energy-saving technology<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Save the planet! Not only will the\u00a0<strong>SDO4\u00a0<\/strong>continue to operate during periods of unstable power or even power outages, but it is incredibly easy on resources. In Sleep Mode it reaches a record low power consumption of 0.5W.
