Ramp up security with a better door opener

9 March, 2022

Your classic car is precious, and not just to you, so it will pay to keep it secure. Dominator garage door openers provide sophisticated electronic security for single and double sized doors.


All Dominator openers come with Tri-tran 128 technology for enhanced reliability and security. And Dominator’s optional Smart Phone Control Kit gives you full remote control of your door via your smart phone wherever you are in the world. The app also gives you real-time alerts, 24/7 monitoring and activity logs.

Dominator openers feature advanced security against code grabbing devices, an excellent operating range and suffer no interference from other wireless devices such as baby monitors and door bells. Handily, they also have four remote buttons so that you can operate multiple doors or gates, even at different locations — the home and bach, for example.


Naturally, as complete garage door professionals, Dominator provides a skilled measure, quote and installation service. For more information on Dominator’s latest openers, call 0800 366 462, visit a Dominator dealer, or check out their expert security tips at dominator.co.nz

When I visited George Spratt’s workshop in Auckland, I was impressed with the number of vehicles he had tucked away, mostly hybrid or fully electric. Many of them had started life being petrol powered but George has been tinkering with converting conventionally powered cars to electrical propulsion since the mid ’70s.
The Horizon was George’s first attempt at building a car; it was an evolution of ideas about what was considered to be ideal for a car at that time. The shape and style were governed by the choice of running gear and power plant.
