Advancing Door Safety Standards
Patent Pending — USPTO: 63/886,072. This innovative safety interlock uses advanced electrolytic tilt and inertial measurement sensors on a gravity-aligned gimbal to detect misalignment in under a second. Designed for bifold and hydraulic doors, it automatically halts operation to avoid jams, falls, or overloads caused by uneven cables, debris, wind, or wear—protecting personnel, equipment, and your operations.
Electrolytic tilt sensors deliver ±0.001° precision, a first in door safety.
Ultra-fast measurements ensure rapid detection and intervention.
Installs in 10 minutes on new or existing doors with just two bolts.
Real-time measurements are recorded to crash-resistant storage for failure analysis.
CrashAxis engineering prototype installed on a Hi-Fold® bifold door with a LiftMaster® controller.
The CrashAxis tilt safety interlock provides hardware and software that continuously observes the overhead door for many potential problems in operation or maintenance and prevents the door from being operated if risk of failure occurs without human intervention. No such system for doors of this size currently exists.
An IP67 enclosure and industry-leading M12 connectors ensure what's outside stays outside.
Door tilt and rotation, speed, opening height, temperature, humidity, wind loading, barometric pressure, and more.
Onboard machine-learning algorithms accurately detect anomalous movement and seamlessly integrate live maintenance records to add intelligence to your existing service protocols.
Measurement data is recorded in crash-resistant storage that continues to function even in the event of catastrophic failure. Crashes can be reconstructed for failure analysis.
Automatically stops the door from opening when tilt becomes unsafe.
Senses high winds, door obstruction, debris in cables or straps.
Determines if cables, straps, winches, tracks or frames need maintenance.
A simple shop rag or misplaced glove can cause the door to jam during operation, which can lead to catastrophic failure. Watch as the CrashAxis engineering prototype quickly detects a misalignment caused by a glove caught in the hoist assembly.
For facility managers, maintenance crews, and operators, a single door failure can halt operations, risk lives, and cost thousands. CrashAxis tilt safety interlock stops these disruptions before they start, keeping your team safe and your doors moving.
A jammed door from a stray rag or stretched cable can shut down your warehouse for hours. CrashAxis detects issues in under a second, stopping the door before it’s stuck.
Heavy doors weighing thousands of pounds pose lethal risks when misaligned. Our system locks out unsafe operation, giving operators peace of mind to focus on their work.
No more guessing when cables need replacing. CrashAxis tracks usage and flags maintenance needs, so your team can plan ahead and avoid surprise failures.
Revolutionize how you track and maintain vertical-lift doors with our integrated sensors and seamless cloud connectivity. The interlock captures high-resolution data on tilt, vibration, environmental factors, and operational metrics, securely writing it to crash-resistant memory for effortless root-cause analysis post-incident.
Integrate it with the CrashAxis.com platform to unlock automated scheduling, comprehensive audit trails, and AI-driven predictive maintenance alerts that flag issues like cable stretch, excessive wind, or debris before they cause failures.
This isn't just reactive safety—it's a complete ecosystem that reduces maintenance costs, extends equipment lifespan, and complies with stringent industry standards.
Our non-exclusive licensing empowers your business to fully leverage our innovative safety technology—build, market, and enhance it under your brand while integrating it seamlessly into your product ecosystem.
