The SOMMER US1502 Swing Door Fitting Kit is an accessory for evo+ operators that adapts a SOMMER opener to control side-hinged (swing-out) garage doors, often called carriage-house doors. The kit provides the specialized linkage and mounting components needed to connect the evo+ rail carriage to hinged door panels so the operator can open and close them in a controlled, reliable motion. It is intended for use where a standard sectional garage door application is not present, allowing homeowners or installers to upgrade existing hinged doors to powered operation with a compatible SOMMER evo+ system.
Designed as a replacement part or retrofit accessory within the SOMMER ecosystem, the US1502 kit is used with evo+ operators and is installed according to SOMMER’s application-specific instructions. Proper setup includes securely mounting the linkage to the door and frame, verifying smooth manual door movement before motorization, and then programming the evo+ opener’s travel limits and force settings after installation. For safety and compliance, use approved entrapment protection with the opener and follow all SOMMER installation and operating manuals. This kit does not include the opener or rail and is recommended for residential side-hinged door applications where compatibility with SOMMER evo+ operators is required.
