It is a rugged tool, easy to use, rated to handle steel, fire rated, solid core, and commercial grade doors up to 250lbs. The Door Jak 50 suggested retail price is $599.

The Company also manufactures the Door Jak 100, a heavy-duty full-featured commercial door cart with the capacity to carry up to 750lbs. or more and is in use today at hospitals, universities, airports, hotels, and large facilities all over the world by workers and general contractors. Both Door Jaks allow one worker to safely remove or install large and oversized doors thus reducing the risk of injury while increasing productivity. They feature smooth controls, stability and high quality workmanship and are used by carpenters, locksmiths, painters, repair crews, general contractors and anyone who has the responsibility for maintaining facilities and new construction requiring door removal or installation.

Hardnox LLC also announced the launch of its North American Dealer Program. The new program for the Door Jak 50 is now in place to distribute the Door Jak with an attractive price point and supports the dealers with sales materials and technical support.

"The Door Jak 50 was created as a result of our industry research exposing the need for a lower priced but sturdy door cart," said Jim Echternacht, Hardnox LLC President. "The Door Jak 50, like the Door Jak 100, is so easy to use, you roll it up to a door, use the controls and attach the door using only one worker. No more pinched fingers and sore backs."

"The Door Jak 50 should be in the hands of every tradesman who works on doors. We can achieve this through our network of dealers that include tool stores, distributors, door dealers and reps in the industry," said Robert Reali, Hardnox LLC National Marketing and Sales Director. "The Door Jak 50, with its $599 price point, should do very well in wide distribution. The Door Jak potentially reduces the costs of worker’s compensation and helps satisfy OSHA federal regulations for lifting in the workplace making it well worth the purchase price."
