Falcon 8242AL Push Side Auto Operator Aluminum

Product Description

The FALCON 8242AL is a push-side automatic door operator finished in aluminum. Automatic door operators are mounted to the push side of a door to provide hands-free or low-effort door opening, making them essential for ADA-compliant entryways in commercial and institutional buildings. The 8242AL is built to aluminum finish standards suitable for high-traffic door frames and is designed to integrate with standard door hardware configurations. At 33.4 pounds, the unit is a substantial commercial-grade operator intended for professional installation on swing doors in facilities requiring automated access.

This automatic operator is suited for commercial applications including office buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, and public-access buildings where ADA-compliant door automation is required. The push-side mounting configuration means the operator is installed on the side of the door that swings toward the user. It is commonly specified by architects and facilities managers and installed by licensed door hardware or general contractors working to local building codes.
