New requirements mandated by the safety standard (UL 325) have caused DoorKing to discontinue several gate operators. The new requirements mandate that photo-beams and contact edges used for entrapment protection must be monitored. The DoorKing gate operators with the Convenience Open (C.O.) option, or DC backup, cannot meet this requirement. Therefore, DoorKing will discontinue manufacturing of these models after January 12, 2016.

For those customers that require a DoorKing, battery backed up system, DoorKing offers two DC gate operators (models 6524 and 9024) and their model 1000 power inverter.

The following gate operators will be discontinued as of January 12, 2016:
