Norton 5800 Series Automatic Door Opener
Wire-Free Low-Energy Automatic Door Operator for Commercial ADA Accessibility
The Norton 5800 Series Regenerative Automatic Door Opener provides an innovative solution for adding automatic operation and improved accessibility to commercial pedestrian doors. Designed around a regenerative drive system, the Norton 5800 Series captures energy generated through normal manual door operation and uses that stored energy to help power automatic opening cycles.
Unlike conventional automatic swing door operators that typically require electrical power at the operator, the Norton 5800 Series wire-free automatic door opener is designed to operate without conventional electrical power at the operator when used in its regenerative configuration. This makes it an attractive solution for retrofit installations where bringing electrical power to an existing commercial door may be difficult, disruptive or expensive.
This Norton 5800 Series operator is configured for parallel arm, push-side installation. The automatic door operator mounts directly to the door while the parallel arm attaches to the push side of the door frame header. This unique mounting configuration provides a compact solution for commercial accessibility and retrofit automatic door applications.
What makes the Norton 5800 Series automatic door opener different from many conventional automatic swing door operators is its regenerative operating system.
During normal manual operation of the door, energy generated through door movement is captured by the regenerative system. That energy can then be stored and used to help provide powered automatic opening cycles when the automatic door operator is activated.
This operating principle makes the Norton 5800 Series particularly well suited for commercial doors that receive regular manual traffic while also requiring automatic operation for accessibility and convenience.
In its regenerative configuration, the Norton 5800 Series does not require conventional electrical power at the automatic door operator. This can simplify certain retrofit applications by reducing the electrical work normally associated with installing a conventional automatic swing door opener.
The Norton 5800 Series shown here is designed for a parallel arm push-side application. Unlike many conventional automatic door operators that mount across the frame header, the Norton 5800 operator body is mounted directly to the door.
The parallel arm assembly extends from the door-mounted operator and attaches to the push side of the door frame header. This creates a compact installation while allowing the regenerative operator to work with the movement of the door.
Operator Location: Mounted directly to the door
Arm Type: Parallel Arm
Arm Attachment: Push side of door frame header
Application: Push-Side Commercial Swing Door
The standard Norton 5800 Series automatic door opener kit includes the primary components required for the parallel arm automatic door operator installation.
Handicap push buttons and other activation devices are sold separately unless specifically included in the selected product configuration. Review the exact package contents and available options before ordering.
The Norton 5800 automatic door opener can be configured with different activation devices based on the requirements of the opening. This provides flexibility when designing an accessible commercial entrance or interior automatic door.
Wireless activation is particularly useful when the objective is to minimize field wiring and simplify the addition of automatic door operation to an existing commercial opening.
Although regenerative operation is one of the key features of the Norton 5800 Series, an optional hardwired power kit may also be selected separately for applications where a hardwired configuration is preferred.
Depending on the selected configuration, the hardwired package may include the required power supply, wiring harness, terminal components and associated mounting hardware. This provides additional flexibility when designing the complete automatic door system.
Automatic door operators can provide an important accessibility solution for commercial buildings by reducing the physical effort required to open a pedestrian door. When properly specified, installed and adjusted for the opening, a low-energy automatic door operator can provide convenient assisted access for wheelchair users, elderly visitors, employees, customers and other building occupants.
The Norton 5800 Series combines this accessibility function with regenerative technology, allowing users who do not require automatic assistance to continue operating the door manually while automatic opening is available when needed.
The Norton 5800 Series regenerative automatic door opener is an excellent solution for commercial and institutional applications where accessibility and automatic operation are needed while maintaining normal manual door use.
One of the challenges of adding a conventional automatic door opener to an existing commercial door can be bringing electrical power to the opening. Depending on the building construction, this may require electrical work, conduit, wall access or coordination between multiple trades.
The regenerative design of the Norton 5800 Series provides an alternative for appropriate openings. By eliminating the need for conventional electrical power at the operator in its regenerative configuration, the Norton 5800 can be an attractive option when automatic accessibility needs to be added to an existing manual commercial door.
The Norton 5800 Series combines the convenience of a low-energy automatic door opener with regenerative technology, wire-free operation, compact door-mounted installation and flexible activation options. For appropriate commercial openings, it provides an innovative alternative to a conventional electrically powered automatic swing door operator.

Gary was very helpful from the first and communicated with me on his on time. He was in touch with me for several days and was very helpful finding the part I needed although I did not have a picture of the part.
