Lift Modernisation Made Simple: Meet the OMNI Door Operator


Now available in the UK, exclusively from ILE, the OMNI door operator by GAL offers the perfect blend of robustness, flexibility and simplicity. Dave Jefcoate, an expert installation engineer at ILE, sheds light on how OMNI stands out as a game-changer in lift modernisation. 

Beyond repairs: Why modernisation matters

When a lift breaks down, speed is key to restoring operations. But repair time is also an excellent opportunity to upgrade with modern, efficient equipment. That’s where OMNI comes in – a cost-effective solution that ensures reliable lift performance while keeping expenses in check. 

Cost-effective modernisation without compromise 

In today’s budget-conscious environment, customers need modernisation solutions that deliver real long-term value. OMNI certainly fits that bill. Designed to accommodate most door systems, it’s a durable, variable frequency-controlled operator that replaces broken equipment without the typical delays.

OMNI is readily available from ILE and can be easily installed in less than a day—saving customers the hassle of waiting for weeks on out-of-stock parts from elsewhere.

Built to last: OMNI’s versatile specifications

OMNI’s strength lies in its adaptability:

  • Adjustable telescopic channel: Fits a wide range of door openings (600mm to 2700mm), for both side and centre-opening doors.
  • No pre-installation survey required: Engineers can configure it on-site, minimizing downtime and disruption.
  • Designed for durability: OMNI is engineered to provide long-lasting performance.

Quick & intuitive installation

OMNI makes life easier for engineers:

  • Out-of-the-box simplicity: With fewer components to assemble or adjust, installation is faster and more straightforward.
  • Familiar control box layout: Engineers will appreciate the simple design, cutting down learning curves and potential errors.
  • On-site adaptability: Suitable for both older and newer lifts, OMNI reduces limitations when replacing failed equipment.

During a recent open-day demo, customers saw first-hand how OMNI can streamline the modernisation process. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with many recognising its ease of use and flexibility.

OMNI by name, OMNI by nature 

The versatility of OMNI is reflected in its name—it’s suitable for nearly every lift door modernisation scenario. With its ability to adapt to varying door types, widths, and configurations, OMNI offers a reliable, universal solution that engineers can trust.

Demand for OMNI is rising across the UK. At ILE, we’re not only ready to meet this growing need but are committed to innovating further, enhancing OMNI’s capabilities to shape the future of lift modernisation.
