Door Controls International was founded in 1971, by Ralph D. Maynard Jr. with the invention of the patented stop-applied Door Coordinator. The company still remains a family owned and operated business, developing and manufacturing life-safety and security products for the commercial door and hardware industry. The founder's vision was simple, manufacture the highest quality products at a good price, and always deliver outstanding service to our customers. The company's longevity can be attributed to this belief.
