Identification

Aliases
  • dormakaba door operator control (oem)
  • DORMA automatic door controller (common_name)
  • dormakaba / DORMA control board (common_name) — Legacy DORMA naming remains common in field language and marketplace titles.
  • RDX489-400 (revision) — DCUSA 2016 Dorma ESA “CONTROL.” Heritage ESA sliding identity — confirm generation vs ESA II before buying.
  • RDS2814-010 (revision) — DCUSA 2016 ESA II “MINI DRIVE CONTROL.” Different from ESA RDX489-400.
  • Dorma sliding door computer (mistaken) — Too vague; may omit whether the donor was sliding, swing, or another package type.
Labels & connectors to capture
  • dormakaba and/or legacy DORMA branding on enclosure, PCB, or operator plates
  • ESA / ESA II or sticker PNs such as RDX489-400 and RDS2814-010
  • Model or type designations for the automatic operator package
  • Motor, safety, and activation connector sets
  • Revision marks on stickers or silkscreen
Common mistaken names
  • Any board titled only “DORMA parts” or “dormakaba door parts” without operator-control context
  • Activation sensors sold as dormakaba operator logic boards
Revision notesShow

Legacy DORMA and current dormakaba branding can appear across multiple operator generations. Aftermarket 2016 listings separate ESA control RDX489-400 from ESA II mini drive RDS2814-010. Control revisions and harnesses are not interchangeable by logo alone. Capture sticker PNs, silkscreen marks, and connector keying from the donor before purchasing a lookalike.

Compatibility

Commercial automatic door operator packages under dormakaba branding, including field units still labeled DORMA. Confirm sliding vs swing (or other) package plates with the control label before claiming fitment.

Voltage: Package-specific. Use labels on the control and official documentation for that identity; do not assume voltage from legacy DORMA experience or marketplace thumbnails.

dormakaba / DORMA automatic operator packages (matching control identity)

Compatible with caveats

Potential match only when branding marks, revision text, and connectors align with the removed control. Cross-generation dormakaba packages still require separate verification.

Public dormakaba automatic entrance product presence and common legacy DORMA field labeling; exact control matching remains a physical verification step.

Buying & Selling

Condition and value notesShow

  • Used — untested

    Readable dormakaba or DORMA control identity improves buyer confidence; vague titles suppress interest even when the board is intact.

    Qualitative resale guidance; no invented dollar comps.

  • Used — tested

    Include test method and package type context; otherwise treat closer to unknown used.

    Qualitative guidance pending sold-comp curation.

  • Rebuilt / refurbished

    Rebuild claims need workmanship notes and identifiers; unsupported rebuild language should be discounted.

    Process guidance for evaluating rebuilt listings; prices not asserted.

Disclose

  • Brand marks present (dormakaba, DORMA, or both) and readable identifiers
  • Test status and method
  • Board-only vs larger assembly contents

Title tips

  • dormakaba or DORMA + automatic operator control/board + sticker text (ESA / RDX489-400 / RDS2814-010 if present)
  • Include sliding vs swing if known from the donor plate
Buyer guidanceShow

Common mistakes

  • Matching only on a DORMA logo without connector or revision evidence
  • Assuming legacy DORMA and newer dormakaba packages share harnesses

Revision differences

  • Legacy branding can hide generation gaps — demand label and connector photos that match your removed board

Verify before purchase

  • Readable dormakaba / DORMA control identity in photos
  • Connector parity with your removed assembly
  • Package type notes (sliding vs swing) when relevant
  • Return window for wrong revision or family

dormakaba automatic operator controls — including assemblies still carrying legacy DORMA marks — create branding confusion in surplus channels. Listings may say DORMA, dormakaba, or only “automatic door control,” which frustrates both search and fitment. Photograph every brand mark, capture package type, and separate the operator logic assembly from activation peripherals. ESA / ESA II numbers from older aftermarket catalogs are identification cues, not a complete current dormakaba SKU list. Public dormakaba pages are linked for brand orientation; no manufacturer affiliation is claimed.

This is not a repair procedure and not manufacturer-authorized service documentation.
