Dortronics, an industry leader in off-the-shelf and customized door control solutions, is showcasing the latest enhancements to its extensive product portfolio here at GSX 2018 (booth #714). Featured solutions include: the highly versatile and economical 4800 Series Intelligent Interlock Controllers and 4900 Series PLC Mantrap Controllers; and a wide selection of door control switches, pushbuttons and annunciators that can be customized to meet specific user needs with quick turn-around times at competitive prices.

The enhanced 4800 Series Door Interlock Controller accommodates up to five doors, including doors with automatic openers ideal for numerous SMB, clean room and retail applications, and the upgraded 4900 Series 4900 PLC Mantrap with 12/24V selectable outputs delivering increased scalability and higher cost-efficiency for large installations with multiple door locks and alarm devices.
