We finally got power and the garage door opener installed. It’s called the Excelerator. It opens twice as fast a normal opener. It’s pretty sweet.

Available from www.quantekshop.co.uk The CTX is a cloning remote control transmitter that can duplicate your existing remote control transmitter. The CTX has a learning function that copies the code of your original transmitter and stores it in its memory, when the ctxs button is pressed it transmits that code allowing you to use it to open your automatic gates, roller shutter, garage door etc The CTX will copy (clone) any remote control transmitter operating on the 433.92 mhz radio frequency with a fixed code, this means that each time the remote control button is pressed the same code is transmitted. It is not possible to copy any remote that uses code hopping or rolling code technology because these types of remote control send a different code each time the button is pressed. The CTX has 2 buttons and each button can copy a transmitter code, so if your existing remote control has 2 buttons the CTX can duplicate both of them, you can also copy multiple remotes to the CTX so if you have a remote control for your automatic gate and another for your garage door providing they are both fixed code and operate on the 433.92 mhz radio frequency you can copy both to the CTX, this then allows you to control your gate and garage door using one remote control.

As it is not a chain or belt drive. Our patented technology offers a traveling motor that attaches directly to the garage door. There is only one moving part. The motor glides quietly along the stationary track. It is stronger than a chain drive and quieter than a belt drive brought together in one state of the art design.
