Swing door drive units take over the job of opening and closing manual interior doors as well as heavy and large-sized external doors. The whisper quiet opening motion is motor driven while the silent closure is ensured through a variable spring force either supporting the motor or in lieu of the motor in manual operation. Individually selectable additional functions, contact-less motion detectors and safety sensors installed on the door leaf enhance the safety and convenience provided by manual swing doors.
