MakroPro 2.0 ELH façade garage door
A perfect combination of reliable technology and façade aesthetics
The MakroPro 2.0 ELH is a garage door that blends seamlessly into the architecture. Its unique design allows the door leaf to be infilled with virtually any façade material – from ceramic tiles and natural slate to modern composite panels. When closed, the door becomes virtually invisible, forming an integral part of the façade and enhancing its distinctive character.
WIŚNIOWSKI façade doors
The real spectacle begins when the door opens. In an instant, the monolithic façade seems to break apart and retreat, as though the building itself was revealing a hidden space. A surface that appeared to be a solid wall just moments before, quietly disappears into the interior. Only then does it become apparent where the garage door is actually located – almost impossible to detect when closed.
Example finishes*
Thanks to a variety of finishing options, you can perfectly match the garage door to the character of the building.
Wooden finish
Warm, natural, and timeless. A façade door infilled with wooden panels complements contemporary architecture beautifully, while also fitting perfectly within Scandinavian and minimalist designs. It adds warmth and understated elegance to the building.
Concrete-effect panels
Contemporary minimalism at its best. The appearance of concrete is the ideal choice for industrial and modern architecture enthusiasts. A clean, urban aesthetic that never goes out of style.
Corten panels
Distinctive design and unique character. Corten attracts attention with its rich rusty appearance and perfectly complements bold contemporary architecture. An ideal choice for those who want their project to stand out.

What’s inside a façade door?
Our façade door is based on industrial-grade solutions adapted for residential use. As a result, it features impressive modern design, while offering unparalleled durability and functionality.
The door leaf can reach an area of up to 20 m². The infill material can be up to 40 mm thick and weigh up to 40 kg/m². The door can be integrated into both non-insulated buildings and façades with insulation thickness ranging from 70 mm to 250 mm.
1. Panel 40 [mm]
The façade door leaf can be manufactured using a steel panel infilled with polyurethane foam. The 5-layer sheet metal bending system ensures secure fixing of components and increases structural strength. Alternatively, an aluminium panel without a thermal break can be used, featuring an aluminium sheet–expanded polystyrene–aluminium sheet infill. The panel is reinforced with an integrated strengthening profile.
2. Substructure
The door is supplied with galvanized steel structural components for installation within the opening. In the case of the insulated variant, the set also includes galvanized steel angle bars adapted to the thickness of the insulation layer. Optionally, the door can be equipped with a fake lintel.
3. Heavy-duty tracks
Manufactured from durable 2 mm thick galvanized steel sheet. Thanks to their reinforced structure and specially profiled edges, the rollers remain securely in position, ensuring smooth, stable, and safe operation.
4. Robust opening frames
Manufactured from 2 mm thick galvanized steel sheet. The specially designed profile prevents the side gaskets from becoming dislodged while additionally reinforcing the entire structure, ensuring greater stability and a longer service life.
5. Modern rail drive unit
The SW 6.80 FU or SW 9.60 FU drive unit with an integrated inverter ensures exceptionally smooth operation. Soft start and gentle stop functions protect the mechanism, while adjustable operating speed allows the movement of the door leaf to be tailored to individual requirements. The result is greater comfort, quieter operation, and outstanding reliability.
6. Quiet guiding rollers
We use enlarged roller brackets equipped with special self-lubricating bushings. This allows the door to operate exceptionally quietly and smoothly, without unwanted vibration or noise. The result is greater everyday comfort and a quieter home environment.
7. Low tracks
An ideal solution for garages with a low lintel or limited space under the ceiling. Thanks to its specially designed configuration, the door travels smoothly just below the ceiling, making maximum use of the available space.
8. Rear-mounted torsion spring system
Supports the lifting and lowering of the door leaf. The two torsion springs are designed for 25,000 operating cycles and are precisely selected according to the dimensions and weight of the door leaf, including the weight of the selected façade-matching infill. This individual configuration ensures safe and reliable operation for many years.

Engineered for confidence
A façade door is a massive structure that operates under significant loads on a daily basis. For this reason, safety must remain an absolute priority. Appropriate safety features protect against the effects of failures and minimize risks even under the most demanding operating conditions.
1. Reinforcing profile end caps
Manufactured from plastic, they protect against accidental injury. They are finished in the same colour as the reinforcing profiles and the internal side of the door leaf.
2. Protection in case of load-bearing cable failure
Safety brakes prevent the door leaf from dropping in the event of supporting cable failure. They can be integrated with a broken cable sensor.
3. Spring breakage safety device
The device prevents the door leaf from dropping in the event of a spring breakage. It can be integrated with a broken spring sensor.
4. Optical safety edge
Provides protection against crushing by the closing door leaf.
5. Safety light curtain
Detects the presence of people, animals or objects within the clear opening. If an obstacle is detected, the door stops and reverses.
